The Economic Times reports that actor-politician Ravi Kishan joined a group of dancers for a lively garba performance, dressed in a yellow kurta and white straight-cut trousers, dancing to Rahul Vaidya and Bhoomi Trivedi's 'Garbe Ki Raat'.

Spectators gathered around to record the moment on their phones as he matched the festive energy. The Economic Times notes the clip prompted reactions like 'national duty' and 'Garba follow bro', with one commenter imagining him saying 'Garba Dance Follows My Brother.'

News24Online describes the video as part of festive celebrations, but viewers quickly turned it into a conversation about Kishan's standing in meme culture. Some noticed he danced without the traditional dandiya sticks, producing the joke 'Jaldi the late mein dandia stick reh gaya.'

Others saw bigger things coming: 'Because of ravi kishan the garba dance will be popular again,' one user wrote, while another predicted 'another meme wave in India coming.' News24Online frames the mood as 'Wherever ravi kishan goes viral follows.'

What makes this a story rather than a clip is Kishan's long viral pedigree. The Economic Times traces his meme lineage to his 'Zindagi jhandwa, fir bhi ghamandwa' catchphrase from Bigg Boss about a decade ago, plus his 'money follows brother' line and the 'Gucci walk.'

News24Online reports Kishan later clarified the Gucci walk was not choreography: he was sidling toward a cramped stage and described his look as that of a 'locked pigeon.' Each new moment, the outlets suggest, gets read against that catalog.

The meme fame is no longer confined to screens.

News24Online reports that a Ravi Kishan-themed party was held in Delhi in September, where Gen Z attendees recreated his looks, dialogues and dance moves, and that his steps have been recreated alongside paparazzi and his Mirzapur co-stars Divyendu and Ali Fazal.

Kishan danced again at the Mirzapur: The Movie album launch in August, per News24Online. The Economic Times adds he is a Filmfare and IIFA Best Supporting Actor winner for Laapataa Ladies and the Gorakhpur MP since 2019 — a sitting parliamentarian whose jokes people now perform.

Both outlets point the same direction: the internet is not done with him. 'Bro trying to get another banger,' one commenter wrote, per News24Online, which says Kishan has spoken about enjoying the memes rather than taking them too seriously.

The Economic Times lists his recent slate — Singham Again, Son of Sardaar 2, Maa Behen and Dhamaal 4 — alongside his political career, meaning every film appearance and festival clip now arrives pre-loaded with meme potential, with fans already betting the garba clip is his next template.

The clip itself is the story: Ravi Kishan, in a yellow kurta and white trousers, joining a circle of dancers to Rahul Vaidya and Bhoomi Trivedi's 'Garbe Ki Raat' as onlookers film on their phones.

The Economic Times and News24Online both report the video ignited the reaction wave, from 'national duty' to dandiya-stick jokes, and it is the footage the next round of edits and memes will be cut from.
