Mavin artiste and rel life doctor, Dr Sid has dropped the video for the hit song "Open And Close'

During his days in Mohits, Dr Sid produced hit after hit.
While in Mavin Records, he sees to have lost his musical flavor, as hit songs are far and fewer in between.
But his latest song "Open & Close", which just got a music video, could go down as a great party jam.
"Open & Close" is a mid-tempo song which has repetitive lyrics that makes the song infectious enough to stick in your head.
The music video is like a short film. We get to see Dr Sid put his film making skills from the New York Film Academy into good use.
In the music video, Dr Sid, who plays a spy who gets into a fight in the club over a girl.
This turns into a hilarious fight scene in the middle of the party, that evolves into Dr Sid dancing Shaku Shaku.
But what's up with infusing Shaku Shaku into every song these days?
