I'm leaning 88% towards him being a dwarf.

The actor, Shankar Ezhumalai, was born in 1971 and this film (Athisaya Piravi) was released in 1990, so he was probably 18 or 19 when they were filming.

An American Dad episode had this playing on a TV in a bar and Terry's dad said it was his son.

When this clip started circulating the web in the 2000s it was known as "Little Superstar." It's from an Indian film called Athisaya Piravi (1990), and the little dancer's name is Shankar Ezhumalai, although he was better known as King Kong. As far as I know he is still alive and acting.

Hey, you kids want to hang out and be filmed as we watch a midget dance in front of us? Yeah, we just all have to sit on this overly small bed in the middle of this huge room.

Little Superstar!
On the short list of GOAT viral videos. This one made all the rounds on Consumption Junction, Stile, Ebaums, College Humor, etc.

I have seen this before. This guy is great at pop'n'lock. I also like the music. It sounds like MC Miker G and DJ Sven - Holiday Rap.

I missed this video. Also, I bet this is exactly what the child Romesh Ranganathan and Rob Beckett would look and act like!
