WATCH: Indian university students' dance video generates buzz

Students dancing at a top Indian university sparks debate on social media, with mixed reactions from viewers online.

A video of students, reportedly from a prestigious Indian university, dancing to a popular Bollywood song has gone viral on social media, sparking considerable debate.

Shared widely, including a post on X by the user, the clip shows a female student leading the dance while others join in the background.

This display has attracted mixed reactions—some viewers found the dance unsuitable for a respected institution, while others saw no issue with it.

The university has not officially commented on the video, nor has it been shared through its official channels.

For critics, the performance raises questions about whether such activities align with the image of one of India's top engineering institutions.

One user commented, "People go there to study—what is happening?" while another labeled the dance as "inappropriate."

On the other hand, many defended the students, pushing back against the criticism and moral policing. Some voiced their support, asking, "What's the issue here?" while others noted, "This shows that students excel at more than just academics."

The university recently attracted attention for its 2023-24 placement report, which revealed that 25% of students hadn't secured jobs through campus placements.

This report also highlighted that some offers came with salaries as low as 4 lakh rupees annually.
