A Teachers' Day celebration video has been going viral on social media, sparking reactions from the netizens. The dancing moves of the students in the video, which is set to a Bollywood song, have been deemed "vulgar" and "inappropriate" by online users.
On September 5, 2024, a school celebration honoring the educators is captured on camera. It appears that the students are doing a stage show, which is a custom that many schools around the globe adhere to.
Even though it makes us nostalgic to perform at school events, the school girls' particular performance has sparked negative comments online.
The video shows a group of schoolgirls, possibly between the ages of five and seven, dancing to the song "Aaj Ki Raat," which features actress Tamannah Bhatia and stars Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao in the film "Stree 2."
The hook step from the song was seen being performed by the students.

Some online users believe the dance moves are "uncivilized," and they believe that young students should not be exposed to item songs and these kinds of "vulgar" dance moves at such an early age.
"We need to hold educators and parents accountable," an irate internet user said.
