00:02 What happens when a subculture breaks into the mainstream?
00:13 From India's streets to the Olympic podium,
00:16 from obscurity to recognition and glory,
00:19 this is an incredible story of India's break dancers.
00:25 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:27 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:29 Make some noise!
00:43 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:46 Do you remember watching music videos
00:53 with background dancers doing somersaults,
00:55 nail-biting backflips, and spinning on their heads?
00:58 Some called it stunts.
01:00 Others called it a circus.
01:03 But it is neither of those.
01:05 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:08 These dancers are called breakers.
01:17 And the dance/sport is called break dancing.
01:24 After being a part of the 2018 Youth Olympics,
01:26 Breaking is set to debut at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
01:30 It's a huge recognition for a culture that kicked off
01:33 in India over a decade ago.
01:35 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:37 Breaking in India, I personally feel,
01:40 has been since 2005.
01:43 My seniors like Ninja, Bunny, Simon, and Venky,
01:48 I think these guys have played a major role in shaping
01:51 the whole hip-hop scene, which is still there.
01:55 Here we go now.
01:57 And behind all these flips and spins,
01:59 the sport has many established elements.
02:01 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:03 Here we go now.
02:05 Breaking elements are top rock, footwork, power move,
02:12 all three of it.
02:13 Here we go now.
02:16 India's breakers are going all in
02:18 to be among the world's top 16 boys and girls
02:21 at Paris 2024.
02:24 The medal event, athletes will be judged
02:26 on aspects such as creativity, execution, style,
02:29 and difficulty of movement.
02:31 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:34 For the newly formed Break Dance Federation of India,
02:43 the task is to determine who can represent
02:45 the country at continental and world events.

03:19 If breaking has to take off, I will
03:42 think that somebody really interested in that sport,
03:45 having the money and the vision, takes up the National Sports
03:49 Federation of that sport, and then start building that school.
03:55 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:57 [MUSIC PLAYING]
04:04 For a country that seems to love breaking news,
04:08 this phenomenal bunch of athletes
04:10 is poised to break their lives' greatest news
04:13 by dancing their way to a medal.
