Last Updated:
Dance influencer Sandip Brahamin accuses Remo D'Souza of copying his signature step in Housefull 5's song Laal Pari. Says: 'No mention, no credit at all.'
While Laal Pari from Housefull 5 continues to dominate social media with its infectious beats and star-studded visuals, a controversy is now brewing around its choreography. Popular content creator Sandip Brahamin has publicly accused choreographer Remo D'Souza of copying one of his signature dance moves without credit.
Sandip took to his official Instagram account recently to share a video comparing a step from Laal Pari — where lead actors wearing hats are seen shaking their heads — with a move he claims he popularized through his own content. Backing his claim with old footage of himself performing the same step, Sandip expressed disappointment over no

t being credited.
'You all have seen my signature moves. My move has been copied in the Housefull 5 song Laal Pari. Many of my friends DMed me after watching the video. I checked again on Instagram and YouTube — there's no mention, no credit. I don't know what is happening," he said.
Urging his followers to rally behind him, Sandip added, 'I want you guys to share this video as much as possible. I need your support." The video has since been widely circulated across fan pages and influencer circles.
So far, Remo D'Souza and the makers of Housefull 5 have not responded to the allegations.
Despite the controversy, Laal Pari — sung by Yo Yo Honey Singh and Simar Kaur — remains a viral hit, with fans and influencers flooding reels and dance challenges with their versions of the track. The song features a dazzling ensemble including Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, Abhishek Bachchan, Jacqueline Fernandez, Sonam Bajwa, Soundarya Sharma, and Nargis Fakhri.
Directed by Tarun Mansukhani, Housefull 5 released in theatres on June 6 and has been performing exceptionally well at the box office. With a massive Rs 87 crore collection over its opening weekend, the comedy franchise is well on its way to crossing the Rs 100 crore mark. The film opened with Rs 24 crore, marking the highest opening for the Housefull series so far.
The film also boasts an extensive supporting cast including Shreyas Talpade, Nana Patekar, Fardeen Khan, Jackie Shroff, Sanjay Dutt, Johnny Lever, Chunky Pandey, Nikitin Dheer, Dino Morea, Chitrangda Singh, Akashdeep Sabir, and Ranjeet.
Whether Sandip Brahamin's claims will lead to an official response or acknowledgment remains to be seen, but for now, Laal Pari continues to be the rhythm everyone's dancing to — controversy or not.

Who is Natalie Reynolds? Influencer viral for crying outside TikTok HQ in Los Angeles
A video of influencer c crying outside TikTok's headquarters has gone viral, sparking debate across the internet. Reynolds is a 26-year-old content creator based in Los Angeles. She became popular on TikTok in 2022 with lip-sync and dance videos. Over time, she shifted to prank skits, relationship comedy, and flirty banter with her boyfriend, Zack (real name: Zachary Huelsman). Their playful clips often showed up on users' 'For You' pages. Reynolds has also grown her audience outside of TikTok, she has over 5.5 million YouTube subscribers, around 133,000 Instagram followers and more than 33,000 followers on Kick, where she now livestreams. Also Read: TikToker Khabane 'Khaby' Lame arrested by ICE in Las Vegas? What we know On June 9, a video posted on X (formerly Twitter) showed Reynolds in tears outside TikTok's offices. In the clip, she's on the phone, visibly upset, asking to be let inside. According to online reports, her TikTok account had been banned, and she was trying to get it back. Some viewers sympathized with her. Others questioned whether it was a real emotional moment or a stunt. So far, neither TikTok nor Reynolds has said why her account was banned. But many online think it may be linked to a controversial video she posted in May. Last month, Reynolds came under fire for a prank video filmed at Lady Bird Lake in Austin, Texas. In the video, she reportedly offered a homeless woman $20 to jump into the lake. The woman did not know how to swim. Reynolds told her it was part of a 'scavenger hunt' and promised to jump in too—but never did. After the woman entered the water, she shouted that she couldn't swim, only float. A firetruck later arrived, but Reynolds and her group had already left. Viewers were angry and called for legal action. Reynolds later posted follow-up content, showing little concern about the backlash. Even with her TikTok ban, Reynolds is still active on other platforms. She continues to stream on Kick and posts on Instagram and YouTube. Her recent actions have raised questions about how influencers should be held accountable online—and what role platforms should play. Whether Natalie Reynolds bounces back or fades out, one thing is clear: the internet is paying attention.
