About the viral video

The video is believed to have been shot in Madhya Pradesh. It shows Instagrammer Tarun Namdev grooving on a street amidst vehicles passing by his side. Despite rainfall and traffic, he continues to film dance reels there.

In the viral video, he ditches the footpath and stands right in the middle of a road to flaunt his dance moves. As he energetically vibes in front of the camera, a bike and a van cross the road-turned-dance floor.

The ridiculous behaviour and careless attitude were slammed by a few netizens while others simply praised his performance.

Earlier, the influencer had filmed a reel inside the temple premises of Pashupatinath Mahadev Mandir in Mandsaur, Madhya Pradesh. The footage sparked outrage for its frivolous approach. It showed him dancing inside the divine premises and making inappropriate hand gestures such as that of showering money.

Later, Tarun issued an apology for the act and deleted the reel from his Instagram page.
