Mumbai dance group V.Unbeatable stunned everybody with their performance at America's Got Talent and even Bollywood actor, Ranveer Singh, back home. The gathering pulled off some extremely amazing and daring dance moves and earned itself overwhelming applause from the judges and the whole audience.

"Gully boy dancing like Peshwas! World class performers making India proud, fantastic," Ranveer Singh tweeted on Monday. Along with the tweet, he shared a link of the video where the group is seen performing to Malhaari song from Ranveer Singh-starrer Bajirao Mastani. Prior, even Sonam Kapoor and Varun Dhawan had tweeted in the group's support.

The troupe contains 28 members from the age group of 12-27 years. They chanted Ganpati Bappa Morya as one preceding beginning their succession, which included stunning flips and energizing dance moves. Check out the Mumbai dance group V.Unbeatable performance here:

Before their performance, the dance group was asked what it was like to stay in Mumbai. One of their group members stated: "Life in Mumbai is very hard... the life in slums."

"Many members of our group live in slums. The slums are so crowded, grimy and they don't get proper electricity. Frequently 7-10 people stay in one room. It's challenging to survive there. Every day we petition God for a better life, however in the slum, there is very little opportunity for us.”

Dance gives them an opportunity to forget their surrounding. “For the past two weeks, we have not been able to sleep. This opportunity could change our lives. Everyone wants to succeed and give back to their families. We used to watch ‘America’s Got Talent’ on YouTube.

“We were like ‘can we go here someday?’ We were just dreaming about it and today we are here. It’s our dream come true,” said a member.
