Viral Video: Social media is buzzing over a video of three foreign women dancing inside a supermarket but what has really grabbed attention is the music playing in the background. The clip shows them grooving and laughing while holding grocery items, without realising that the track was not just any song but the sacred Hanuman Chalisa. The video, posted on X, carried a text overlay that read, “Us dancing to boss man’s music with our buzz balls to later find out it’s a Hindu prayer.” In the footage, the women casually enjoy themselves, treating the devotional chant like upbeat background music for their fun moment.

However, once the video spread online, it sparked a wave of criticism. Many users felt the act was disrespectful to Hindu sentiments and called it insensitive. Several pointed out that Hanuman Chalisa is not just music but a revered Hindu prayer dedicated to Lord Hanuman and using it in such a casual manner for entertainment was inappropriate.

The video shared just a day ago received significant likes, comments and views from people. Reacting to the viral video, one user wrote, "For some songs you could say that they don't know the lyrics and are vibing to it. But this song already has spiritual vibes even if you don't understand it. I believe they are doing it intentionally and the same thing some other foreigners were doing, Ganga Arti in Haridwar. These are intentional acts. We can even feel whether the song is spiritual or not, even if it is a Christian or muslim song or prayer. It's not innocence. So don't defend them."

"Very disrespectful .. the guy who played the religious song .. should have informed the people who were dancing," a second user wrote. "As a Hindu, I don’t find this disrespectful. Is it necessary to play this in a store on the loudspeaker? NO. These girls are just out having fun. Music is for listening to and vibing to," added a third user.
