A college lecturer from Bengaluru has unexpectedly turned into an online sensation after a video of him showcasing his dance moves to the iconic Bollywood number Muqabala spread rapidly across social media.
The short clip, first posted on Instagram by the account ‘gatalbum,’ carried a playful caption celebrating the professor’s performance. Within days, the video had gathered more than six million views, making him an instant favourite among internet audiences.

His graceful movements, combined with his confidence, won over viewers almost instantly.
A Small Mishap, Handled with Style
What made the performance even more memorable was an unexpected twist midway through. While moving energetically, one of his shoes slipped off.
