Indian tourists break into classic Bollywood song at Eiffel Tower, viral video divides the Internet: ‘Annoying and embarrassing'
A group of Indian tourists recently brought a touch of Bollywood nostalgia to Paris, captivating fellow travellers with an impromptu jam session at the iconic Eiffel Tower. The now-viral video on Instagram shows the group singing the classic Hindi song Aaja Sanam Madhur Chandni Mein.
Sung by legendary singers Lata Mangeshkar and Manna Dey, the popular romantic song is from the 1951 film Chori Chori.
In the video, the group is heard singing in harmony, drawing the attention of foreign tourists, some of whom seem to be enjoying the spontaneous jamming. Some can also be seen clapping, smiling, and nodding along.
Sharing the video, an Instagram user, Pankaj Gupta wrote, 'Every tourist enjoyed an indian song with us on the Eiffel Tower, perish, France.'

The video has since been shared by many. However, it did not sit well with many social media users who called the incident 'embarrassing.' Slamming the video, a user wrote, 'Many of them look startled… People like these should be banned from travelling… just because they feel good doing this in a large number, they think everyone does. It's not like that you insensitive narcissistic people.'
Another user commented, 'Why? Maybe a few people enjoyed it, but look at others' faces. I am living in North America, 100% sure 10 people out of 100 like us singing in a closed space like an elevator or something, and the rest 90 will look at you surprisingly because we are intruding into our personal space too. Please try to figure out what civic sense is.'
'When will we understand and learn to respect others' privacy? Annoying and embarrassing,' a third user reacted. 'Great Indians. Great Singing.Great Choice. Great Jubilations.Go on enjoying,' a fourth user chimed in.
Last week, a video of an Indian baraat passing through Wall Street in New York City sparked a debate, with many users criticising the grandeur as 'unnecessary'.

"People let them be": Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's life in Florida is a lot different from in NYC as the NFL star gears up for the upcoming season
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were spotted in Florida a few days ago as they looked comfortable with each other on a dinner date. More recently, the pop sensation was spotted in New York City with best friend Selena Gomez as they grabbed dinner together at an upscale restaurant. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now But it seems like even though Taylor Swift has been spotted in NYC, she might have found her new home in Florida where she was reportedly staying with Travis Kelce as he trained for the upcoming season of the NFL. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were enjoying their lives in Florida together Recently, as per Life & Style, a source has revealed that, 'They're (Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce) living fairly normally here. She hasn't been spotted much, but everyone is buzzing that she's here.' The source also added, 'When they go out to eat or have drinks, people let them be.' This also seems like what Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have been wanting in the last few months as they had temporarily disappeared from the public eye after Super Bowl LIX where the pop sensation was booed by fans. While Travis Kelce is gearing up for the upcoming season of the NFL, it seems like Taylor Swift has kept herself busy by buying back all the rights to her first six albums. Taylor Swift has not made any announcements about a potential new project Recently, Taylor Swift issued a statement on her Instagram where she spoke about the struggle she went through to own all her music and even gave fans an update about the potential release of Reputation (Taylor's Version). The statement read as, "I know, I know. What about Rep TV? Full transparency. I haven't even re-recorded a quarter of it.' The statement added, 'The Reputation album was so specific to that time in my life, and I kept hitting a stopping point when I tried to remake it. All that defiance, that longing to be understood while feeling purposely misunderstood, that desperate hope, that shame-born snarl and mischief." This had upset many fans as many felt that Taylor Swift was working on her new music, as she stayed away from the public and might just be planning to release it soon. For now, Taylor Swift has not announced a new project and as per Daily Mail, a source has revealed that it might not be too long until the star couple make a serious decision about their futures together.

Arbaaz Khan , who married makeup artist Sshura Khan on December 24, 2023, is once again making headlines — this time for a possible new addition to the family. Rumours are rife that the 57-year-old star is set to become a father again, as a video of Sshura Khan has gone viral, with fans claiming her baby bump is visible. In the video, Sshura is seen stepping out of an eyewear store in Mumbai. Wearing a loose-fitting outfit, she carefully descended the stairs while paparazzi captured the moment.

'MashaAllah,' wrote one fan, while another commented, 'The pregnancy glow is so obvious.' Many others sent the couple blessings and love in the comments section. The video has only added fuel to the buzz that Arbaaz and Sshura are expecting their first child together. There's a 22-year age difference between Arbaaz and Sshura — he is 57, while she is 35. Addressing the age gap in an earlier interview, Arbaaz had said, 'Yes, she's younger than me, but she's not 16. She knows what she wants from life.'
