"Please Stop": Indian Tourists' Group Dancing Draws Criticism
When you think of Indian Bollywood films, scenes of spontaneous dancing often come to mind.

A similar scene recently unfolded in reality.

This is Tokyo Disneyland, a famous amusement park in Japan.

A group of Indian tourists can be seen dancing together.

Their dancing continued even while other visitors were trying to get food, and even in the lines for rides. It is reported that staff members eventually had to use smartphone translation features to ask them to stop dancing.

Recently, it has become a trend on social media for Indian tourists to film and upload videos of themselves performing group dances at famous tourist destinations.

In Hanoi, Vietnam, videos of tourists dancing to recreate movie scenes at the famous "Train Street" have also gained attention.

However, this has been met with criticism, with many arguing that such behavior in public spaces shows a lack of consideration for other tourists and local residents.

Even within India, there have been self-deprecating reactions, with many asking, "Why do they have to act like this even when traveling abroad?"
