BTS Jungkook, V Spark Unexpected Kareena Kapoor Connection At Toronto Show; Here's How

BTS’ Jungkook and V just gave ARMYs an unexpected Bollywood flashback! During their ARIRANG Toronto show, the duo performed the iconic “It’s Raining Men,” instantly sending Indian fans down memory lane. The 1982 classic featured prominently in Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, where Kareena Kapoor’s Poo famously grooved to the song while getting ready, turning the sequence into an unforgettable pop-culture moment. Now the BTS members have unknowingly added a new chapter to that nostalgia. Their playful performance sparked a delightful connection between BTS, Kareena and one of Bollywood’s most recognisable musical moments, leaving Indian ARMYs absolutely enchanted by the coincidence.

The unexpected Bollywood connection did not take long to click with desi ARMYs. One fan asked, “Indian ARMYs, Is This Same Song Pooja Sang In K3G? Pls Tell Me Someone”, while another quickly confirmed the connection, writing, “Yesss its the same song Pooh gets ready and then she goes. Its Backlessss.” The reference is to Kareena Kapoor’s iconic Pooja sequence in Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, where the character gets ready while the track plays in the background. For Indian fans who grew up watching the film, Jungkook and V’s performance instantly unlocked a very specific dose of Bollywood nostalgia.
