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.' Watch the video here: A post shared by Pankaj Gupta (@pankajmp04) 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 Choice. Great 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'.
