In today’s society full of stigmas and judgmental people, it takes a lot of determination and self-belief to swim against the tide and follow your heart.
Bellydancing is one such form of dance that is often associated with women. You would see beautiful-looking women impressing the audience with their killer moves. But the moment a person who doesn’t fit into this box performs the same dance, we start raising our eyebrows at them.
This is the witless mentality this guy might have faced when he took on belly dancing as a professional career. But today, turning deaf ear to all the shaming and taunting, he puts all his energy into mastering the art.
Taking to Twitter, a user named Kaveri shared a small clip of a man gracefully and immaculately belly dancing on what looks like the terrace of a house.
The clip starts with the guy graciously moving his pelvis to the beats of the music. He has a scarf tied around his waist in a manner that makes his moves prominent.
Appreciating the skills of the guy, she wrote:
He is so bloody good at it! pic.twitter.com/fxNbzl4AKE

I mostly see conforming stereotypes and prejudiced comments in response instead of seeing grace & brilliance. What a shame to a regressive society. Pt. Birju Maharaj was lucky that “everything ancient Indian is good” obsessed society spared him.
