A viral dance at MSU’s “Sanskar Sangam” sparked outrage, with NSUI calling it obscene. The student apologised for her song choice but said the backlash was excessive, hurt her mental health, and accused groups of politicising and sharing the video without consent.
Vadodara: A viral video of a student performing to the Bollywood song Dhak Dhak Karne Laga during a three-day “Sanskar Sangam” cultural event at Maharaja Sayajirao University (MSU) has sparked a major controversy on campus, drawing sharp reactions from student groups. The event was organised by the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP).
Amid the backlash, the girl student featured in the viral clip has now released a video clarifying her stance and addressing the criticism. Beginning her statement with “Hello, Jai Shree Ram,” she said the outrage has been blown out of proportion and has deeply affected her mental health.
My Song Selection Was Wrong, I Apologize
She acknowledged that her “song selection was wrong” and issued an apology but questioned the scale of the backlash. “It wasn’t such a big deal that it needed to be treated as if I'd committed treason,” she said, adding that she was simply performing in a normal saree and presenting her art on stage.
