The unforgettable moment documented in the video starts when students ask their principal to dance, and to their surprise, he does.

The video, shared by Ranjana Gaurav Choudhary on Instagram, has already garnered over 2.5 million views. It begins with two students on stage requesting their principal to dance. At first, he refuses, but as the crowd cheers him on, he gives in and takes centre stage.
