When we tried to find the truth we found that the man in the video is Parbhani-based cop Lakshman Bhadarge. Bhadarge said, “My friend’s son was getting married at Shirur. I had gone to a wedding; A lot of old friends had gathered there. Everyone insisted that this wedding is like one of our family’s and we should enjoy and dance. Due to everyone’s insistence, I danced for 5 minutes. When the marriage was over, I came back (to Parbhani). Two days later I got a visit from a journalist, a lot of people called and I realized that my video had gone viral. I was tired of receiving so many calls.”

Verdict: The man dancing in the video is Parbhani-based cop Lakshman Bhadarge who was dancing at a wedding
