The Driver’s Dance Moves: A Story of Distancing and Support

The video showing the dance moves of the state transport company driver in the song ‘Kili Kiliye’ from the movie Devara attracted great attention. The widely shared performance even impressed Minister Nara Lokesh.

While Lokesh praised the performance, a netizen mentioned the allegation that the driver was suspended for his dancing, which was quickly denied by the minister. Lokesh promised that the driver would be reinstated quickly.

An APSRTC official confirmed that the driver, an outsourced personnel, was never suspended from duty and remained on duty. Lokesh, who is currently in the USA, plans to meet the driver after his return.
