Their energetic performance continued as they occupied much of the aisle, while other passengers remained seated around them. The surrounding commuters appeared noticeably quieter, with several simply watching the group.Some looked on with disappointment, while others appeared less engaged as the singing and clapping continued inside the crowded vehicle. Sharing the video, Amit called the behaviour “extremely embarrassing for India” and warned that such incidents could affect how Indian tourists were perceived abroad.Watch the video here:A group of Gujarati Hindus boarded a bus in Germany and started singing loudly while everyone else remained quiet;in doing so,they were disturbing the other passengers.Extremely embarrassing for India.If this continues,Indians could soon face strict visa restrictions worldwide. pic.twitter.com/nqKpAci1YV— Amit _ (@Amit24TD) August 31, 2026The clip prompted strong reactions online, with several users criticising the tourists for creating a disturbance in a public vehicle. Some argued that celebrations and loud singing should be kept confined to private spaces rather than imposed on fellow passengers.Others were far more blunt, saying the behaviour was damaging India's image and questioning why some people failed to recognise the difference between a private celebration and a shared public space.One user also described the incident as “absurd, arrogant and uncivilised,” while asking fellow Indians why they behaved this way abroad.Several users also questioned why authorities or transport staff had not intervened, with the video reigniting discussions about public etiquette, tourism and respecting shared spaces.- EndsPublished By: Yashna TalwarPublished On: Sep 1, 2026 12:25 IST
