Girl's Dance Video at Railway Station Goes Viral, Viewers Call it Inappropriate and Call for Action

A video of a girl’s unconventional dance at a railway station has stirred up a storm on social media, prompting widespread criticism and calls for action. The incident, captured on camera, shows the girl, identified as Seema Kanojia who goes by the username @seemakanojiya87 on Instagram, performing a dance routine near a woman seated on a station bench. In the viral video, a woman is seen sitting on a bench at the railway station. As the woman gets up to leave, Seema touches her from behind in an unusual manner, purportedly as part of her dance.

The woman, clearly displeased, protests, but Seema continues to harass her. The frustrated woman signals her intent to hit the girl and begins to walk away. Undeterred, Seema grabs the woman’s neck from behind, prompting the woman to retaliate by pulling her hair. The video cuts off after this hair-pulling incident.

Seema posted the video on her Instagram account, which boasts over 7.46 lakh followers. The video garnered over 3.23 crore views. Additionally, it has been shared by more than 75,000 people, liked by over 2 lakh users, and received more than 5,300 comments. In her caption, Seema clarified that the incident was staged for entertainment purposes and involved a friend.

However, the video has sparked considerable outrage among viewers, questioning the appropriateness of such acts in public spaces. Social media users voiced their concerns, with many condemning the behavior as disrespectful and potentially dangerous. Comments on the video have ranged from calls for legal action to criticism of using public places for such stunts.

Commenting on the video, user Manisha Kamble wrote that Seema deserved jail time, stating that dancing like this on a railway platform was very risky. Another user named Nikita commented that a petition should be filed to take strict action against such individuals, adding that she would be very angry if someone touched her without consent.

Meanwhile, user Priya wrote that the incident underscored the saying, “Money is not everything; there should also be brains.” Another user Aarti Gaikwad urged the Mumbai Railway Police to take action if people were troubled by the woman. Another user remarked that true talent is not being valued, as people are watching and making anything viral.

In the past, achieving popularity required significant effort. Some captivated hearts with their singing, others with their dancing skills, while some earned admiration through their talent, academic achievements, and acting. However, with the rise of social media, people are resorting to extreme measures to gain quick and cheap fame. This trend is highlighted in the Hotstar web series ‘Escape Live’, where characters seek popularity by harassing others.

This viral video controversy underscores growing concerns over the lengths some individuals go to for online popularity and the boundaries of acceptable behavior in public spaces. As the video continues to circulate, discussions persist regarding the responsibility of content creators and the impact of viral trends on societal norms.
