Yes, it’s true! Some new news upon arriving in Bangalore. Apparently, about 3 months ago, dancing was officially banned across Bangalore. If you want to dance, you must do it in the private of your own home. Again, yes, it’s true.

Why? From what I’ve heard, because the men here have been getting a little too “heated” with the ladies.

However, in the office today, I heard there are some “underground” places popping up for dancing. Prohibition, anyone? Footloose, maybe?

People in Bangalore who are really into the party scene are now ditching Bangalore for the weekend and heading elsewhere…like Chennai for party time. Bars here stop serving at 11:30pm anyway.
I could see this happening in China, but would have never thought something like this would happen in India … especially when dancing is such a huge part of the culture here.
