Fortnite: 'Bhangra Boogie' emote can now be claimed for free; here's how

Fortnite's first Indian emote — the 'Bhangra Boogie' — is here, and it is based on the famous traditional Punjabi dance style. Emotes have been one of the most-famous aspects in the game, and something that players often use to taunt enemies or just show off to friends.

However, as per leaks by Lucas7yoshi — a prominent Fortnite leaker and data-miner — it is a OnePlus-exclusive emote, meaning it will only be available for owners of this company's mobile phones. It might be available in the shop as well, though that is yet to be confirmed.

As part of this collaboration with OnePlus, Fortnite has made an exclusive brand deal with the company. Previously, we saw PlayStation, Xbox and Samsung being a part of this popular battle royale game, with their exclusive sets of skins and bundles appearing in Fortnite.

Talking about the 'Bhangra Boogie' emote, some Fortnite community members have already noticed this unreleased emote on Lachlan's stream, and posted the same online. Some other season leaks also showcased this skin. Here is a picture of Lachlan's stream:
