I believe many of us would have noticed Indian people shaking their heads while talking. Don't know if it's cultural or intentional

Almost everything about indians are just too funny, they can't do a movie with out them dancing and singing, and now the shaking of the head thing.

The one that amuses me most is their film trick they are ba!ba! in that part.
