For the unversed, the meaning of "Gaja Gamini" in Sanskrit is "one with the gait of an elephant". The walk is therefore said to be graceful, dignified, and perhaps a slightly regal walk, akin to the majestic gait of an elephant. It might symbolize strength, grace, and femininity.
Furthermore, it is said that the Majestic Walk of the Elephant is described by Vatsayana in Kamasutra as peak of seduction.

"Her back fat is the best part about this video. Props to Bhansali too for not pushing his heroines (unlike Dharma) to be stick thin," one of the fans commented.
Madhuri Dixit did it first?
