A quirky video from Bhopal is making waves online. A woman dressed as a nun was spotted performing dandiya with a group of women, her serious expression contrasting sharply with the festive smiles around her.


The clip, shared on Instagram by Sourabh Kahar known for capturing city moments, has crossed two million views. The woman’s perfectly timed steps paired with her stern gaze created a mix of amusement and curiosity among viewers.


Instagram users had plenty to say. Many found it hilarious, noting it wasn’t the first time someone brought a twist to traditional garba. “Ye nun ko kahi or koi kaam nahi hai har saal aa jaati hai garba karne,” one commented. Another added, “It’s not the costume, it’s the expressions he’s maintaining.”


However, some users felt the outfit was out of place. “Such people should not be allowed in garba. This is not a fancy dress competition. Navratri is about positive energy, not negativity with horrible makeovers. It’s not Halloween night, please try to understand,” wrote one.

The video has clearly struck a chord, dividing viewers between those entertained by the unusual spectacle and those concerned about cultural sensitivity. Love it or critique it, the nun’s dandiya moves are unlikely to be forgotten anytime soon.
