Elephant performs Bharatanatyam in viral video? IFS officer claims it is not dancing but…

Hindustan Times  

A video of two women performing Bharatanatyam while an elephant sways behind them, apparently joining the dance, has delighted millions of viewers. However, an Indian Forest Service officer claims there may be more to the ‘dancing elephant’ than meets the eye, and the animal could actually be stressed. The video was shared on X with the caption: “Two girls are performing Bharatanatyam when suddenly an elephant joins in, matching their moves and vibing along gracefully.” Social media users who saw the video took it at face value and were delighted to see a dancing elephant. Indian Forest Service officer Parveen Kaswan pointed out that the elephant is likely stressed, not dancing in joy as people would like to believe.
