A video of a passenger dancing aboard an IndiGo flight has sparked widespread outrage on social media.

An incident that highlights the growing trend of creating and sharing short videos on platforms such as Instagram, TikTok and YouTube has sparked outrage amongst netizens. 

A video of a passenger dancing aboard an IndiGo flight was posted recently on Instagram. While the video seems to have garnered massive views, likes and earnings for its creators, it also seems to have caused discomfort. Many netizens labelled it as an invasion in the privacy of other individuals in public spaces.

In the now-viral clip shared by Instagram user Salma Sheikh, the woman is seen wearing a black saree and dancing in the aisle of the aircraft to the song “Style Style” by AR Rahman and SP Balasubrahmanyam. The video shows other passengers watching her performance while the flight crew closes the overhead bins.

Many viewers expressed their annoyance and displeasure over the woman’s actions, citing the disruption and violation of privacy caused by the impromptu dance session. Since being shared, the Instagram reel has amassed over 1.6 million views and 16,000 likes. 

Many internet users were not pleased with her video. Read some reactions to the post here:

Passenger felt very embarrassed …moreover, it’s not her private flight to do such nonsense….” said a user.

Another added, “Reason for flights getting delayed…”

“This video is SO CRINGE. Like, don’t we all have a level of shyness to do stuff like this in public? Ugh. I don’t know whether I should appreciate that she is courageous or make fun of her reel choices,” wrote a third user.

“Hello stop being a nuisance this is not your house,” a person said.

Another added, “Ma’am big fan …. opening the emergency exit of the flight exclusively for you”

As the video continues to circulate online, it raises questions about the appropriateness of such behaviour in shared spaces and the impact of social media trends on public etiquette.
