While some viewers praised the man’s boldness and confidence, others found his performance lacking in entertainment value. One viewer humorously compared the man’s dance to “a cockroach after getting hit with kala hit in my sink,” while another noted the “priceless” reaction of an aunty in the background, adding humor to the scene. Comments like “Michael Jackson- no. chacha vibration- yes” highlighted the playful nature of the online responses.
Not all feedback was positive, however. Some netizens expressed concern over such public displays, equating the man’s behavior to that of younger, often criticized “chapri teens” who dance in public spaces. One user wrote, “I’m sorry but what even is this? I’m hoping that people will be against him as well. Just because he is older in age, makes him no less questionable than those chapri teens who dance in public.”
Despite the mixed reactions, many praised the man’s lack of social anxiety and his uninhibited performance. One comment read, “Social anxiety is scared of kaku. How confident he is about his dance steps and expressions. Mann, I need such confidence in my life.” Another joked, “May god save him. This uncle got 480 volts,” adding to the lighthearted commentary.
As the video continues to circulate online, it serves as a testament to the evolving nature of public performance and the diverse reactions it can elicit. Whether viewed as a humorous spectacle or a questionable act, the man’s dance has undoubtedly sparked conversation and highlighted the varied perspectives of today’s digital audience.
