New Delhi: A group of girls who danced inside a train have virtually taken the Internet by storm for their ‘chutzpah.’ A viral video shared on Twitter shows the girl group grooving to a trending song on the train as passengers look on. The video opens with two girls showing off their moves on the upper berths and then cuts to the group performing on the aisle.
Twitter users are in awe of the group’s confidence. Dancing in public and on a platform that isn’t actually designed for dancing is certainly no small feat. “Bhai mere se train mein logo ke aage khana bhi khaya nahi jata,” wrote the Twitter user who shared the video. However, , the video drew a slew of offensive and sexist comments.
Misogynists are complaining about how the girls were spoiling Indian “sanskaar” and how this was the result of feminism. Some even urged the Railways to take action against such acts in public. An innocuous dance drawing such vitriol from Indian men, sadly, is jarring but not at all unexpected on Indian Twitter.
