Mahua Moitra's romantic wedding dance with husband Pinaki Misra on ‘Raat Ke Humsafar' wins internet. Watch viral video
Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra and senior advocate and former BJD parliamentarian Pinaki Misra recently tied the knot in a quiet ceremony held in Berlin, Germany. The couple opted for a low-key celebration on May 3, surrounded by close friends and family. The wedding remained largely private until June 5, when Moitra publicly acknowledged the marriage on social media, posting a photograph of the couple cutting their wedding cake with the message: 'Thank you everyone for the love and good wishes!! So grateful.'
Viral Dance Video Sparks Warm Reactions
The internet was soon abuzz with a viral video of the newlyweds dancing to the romantic classic 'Raat Ke Humsafar' from the 1967 film An Evening in Paris. Shared originally on Moitra's Instagram story, the video shows the couple enjoying a light-hearted moment as they sway together, dressed in pastel peach-toned outfits. While Moitra donned a soft pink Benarasi saree with minimal jewellery, Misra chose a traditional kurta-pyjama paired with a Nehru jacket.
Their performance quickly struck a chord with viewers, earning praise and heartfelt messages from social media users and political colleagues alike. The video has since been widely circulated across platforms, showing the couple holding hands and smiling as the melody plays in the background.

A closer look at the wedding photo revealed a two-tier cake adorned with miniature figurines and symbolic items like a gavel, briefcases, a handbag, and sunglasses. The initials 'MP' on the cake are a nod to both Mahua and Pinaki. The items reflect their personal and professional lives—Moitra's well-known love for handbags, highlighted in past media coverage, and Misra's career as a senior Supreme Court advocate.
Second Marriage for Both Leaders
This is the second marriage for both individuals. Moitra was previously married to Danish financier Lars Brorson, while Misra was earlier married to Sangita Misra. The former BJD leader has two children from his first marriage.
Mahua Moitra, born on October 12, 1974, in Assam, began her professional journey in investment banking before moving into politics. She joined the Trinamool Congress in 2010 and was first elected to the Lok Sabha from West Bengal's Krishnanagar constituency in 2019. She retained the seat in the 2024 general elections.
Pinaki Misra, born on October 23, 1959, in Odisha's Puri, entered politics in the mid-1990s. He initially contested on an Indian National Congress ticket in 1996 and later joined the Biju Janata Dal under Naveen Patnaik. Over his career, Misra has served multiple terms as an MP and held positions on several parliamentary committees.
While both leaders are known for their serious demeanour in public life—Moitra for her vocal parliamentary speeches and Misra for his legal credentials—the dance video offered a rare, intimate glimpse into their personal happiness.

B'luru stampede: Somanna slams govt, defends suspended top cop
Mysuru: Union minister of state for railways V Somanna on Sunday said even an entire year's state budget cannot compensate for the tragic loss of lives in the stampede at Bengaluru's Chinnaswamy Stadium. His remarks came in response to questions from the media regarding the Karnataka govt's revised compensation of Rs 25 lakh per victim, up from the initial Rs 10 lakh. "Even the amount of one full year's state budget cannot compensate for the lives lost in the stampede at Chinnaswamy Stadium," Somanna said. "Royal Challengers Bengaluru reached the IPL finals after 18 years, and the authorities should have planned accordingly. Unfortunately, the chief minister mishandled the situation. Perhaps, he acted on poor advice from his associates," he added. The minister also criticised the suspension of Bengaluru police commissioner B Dayananda, calling it unjust. "I've known the work of IPS officer Dayananda for many years. His suspension is unfair, especially when he had no direct role in the stampede. It was a good decision to appoint him as commissioner, and he should be reinstated immediately. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Promoções imperdíveis de voos baratos Voos | Anúncios de Pesquisa Saiba Mais Undo Govt has gone off track, and they must be held accountable for this tragedy," he added. Reflecting on his past association with CM Siddaramaiah, Somanna expressed disappointment over what he described as a shift in leadership style. "I was in the Congress and was very close to Siddaramaiah. I knew him well — he was not like this. Power seems to have changed him. In the Congress party, no other leader in the country has been given the kind of freedom Siddaramaiah enjoys. It looks like he has changed just to survive as chief minister. This is not the Siddaramaiah I once knew," he said. Somanna also spoke about his personal transformation after becoming a Union minister. "In the past year, after becoming minister of railways and observing Prime Minister Narendra Modi's daily routine and work ethic, I've changed myself," he said. "The state govt should take note of how the Prime Minister functions. They should visit Delhi and see his discipline and dedication first hand. I'm deeply impressed by Modi's style of governance," he added.
