The ‘Dancing Uncle’ part 2
Making the Nation Smile? Meet India’s New Viral Sensation!
social media is like a dry forest, and anything that remotely catches mass interest spreads like wildfire.
Sometimes, it does not take much to become ‘viral’; the cases in point being various social media sensations that have gone on to ‘break the internet’ in India over time. For example, the young girl (Priya Warrier) winking in a music video, or Dhinchak Pooja, the pop-star from Uttar Pradesh, who gained nationwide fame for her distinctive voice.

Shrivastava, 46, hails from the Vidisha district in Madhya Pradesh and is an Assistant Professor of Electronics at the Bhabha Engineering Research Institute in Bhopal.
The Hindustan Times reports that Shrivastava has been dancing since 1982, inspired by his mother Mohini Devi Shrivastava, who was a classical dancer. With no formal training, he won Madhya Pradesh’s ‘Best Dancer’ award three times in the 80’s, at competitions held in Bhopal.
At his brother-in-law’s wedding in Gwalior on May 12th, Shrivastava was channelling the dancer in him, when someone shot the video, and Shrivastava is extremely grateful for that.
Shrivastava has been a part of several dance and theatre groups and has also been a special invitee on auspicious occasions in Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, and other states. However, he claims he has never thought of uploading videos on his own, despite hundreds of performances at many places.
