Now this is something you don’t see every day. A traditional Ram Leela performance in Subhash Nagar, Delhi, turned into a full-blown Bhangra party. And, the Internet can’t get enough of it. The clip, which has taken social media by storm, captures a hilarious moment when a man dressed in a salwar suit breaks into a lively Bhangra in the middle of the act. The video begins with the performers enacting the age-old epic. But within seconds, the person, in bright traditional attire, changes the entire scene and suddenly breaks into a Bhangra. The enthusiasm is so infectious that others join in. A few seconds later, we can see ‘Meghnath’ and ‘Ravaan’ dancing to the peppy beats of Jatt Mauja Karda.

The clip has sparked massive reactions with viewers expressing both disappointment and admiration for the energetic display. A user joked, “Ravan bhi Jatt tha kya?” Another quipped, “Ravanpreet Singh Sandhu.” But not everyone was amused. Some viewers were quick to express disappointment, with one writing, “This is very bad. Our culture and tradition is not a joke and it is not a comedy stage.” ‘Badly Disappointed’ Another added, “Should stop this type of practice while performing religious epics… badly disappointed.” Someone else wrote, “Very disrespectful, other religions would have allowed this. Should be punished for breaching boundaries.” “Please maintain decorum because you are spoiling history and playing with the beliefs of the common man, what are you trying to show them..? It had never happened in history as you guys represented in the name of fun,” a user added. Still, for many, the video was a refreshing example of how India’s diverse cultures can hit in the most unexpected and entertaining ways.
