Viral video: Indian group dances Garba at Great Wall of China — Internet explodes in debate

The video shows the group dancing energetically to the Bollywood track “Chogada” from the film Loveyatri, dressed in traditional Garba attire.

The surroundings appear relatively empty, with few other tourists visible at the site.

While the exact date and source of the video remain unverified, the performance appears to have been pre-planned, given the coordinated costumes and choreography.

After the video went viral, social media users debated over their act.

One internet user wrote: "They look like clowns with their attire and (un)choreography. "

Another said: "These kind of Indians should be kicked out of every foreign location, with a ban on foreign travel for life."

A third person wrote: "These people will perform Garba everywhere except their homes."

While the act drew criticisms online, some netizens came out in support of the tourists and pointed to their right to have fun.

One of them wrote: " Don't use personal videos for cultural wars. Garba is beautiful, Gujaratis are beautiful. They are entitled to do it, when they have paid the money. Nobody should say otherwise."

Another said: " If you see at the end foreigners were also enjoying in the back as long as they are not breaking laws and making others uncomfortable till then ok "

In recent times, such incidents by Indian tourists visiting abroad have often gone viral across social media.

The latest to go viral is a group of Indian tourists performing an impromptu garba circle on a Vietnam airport tarmac, right beside a parked VietJet Air aircraft, clapping and moving to traditional rhythms while ground crew and airport workers moved around them.

Before that, another video showed the same dance at Hanoi's famous Train Street, received with identical bewilderment and mockery. And before Vietnam, there was the Burj Khalifa.

A group of Gujarati tourists, dressed in matching yellow T-shirts, performed a listless garba on the 124th floor in Dubai. The world's tallest building. The world's most famous observation deck. A dance floor, apparently.
