When three Muslim girls shook a leg to the popular Malayalam song Jimikki Kammal in Malappuram as part of AIDS day awareness programme, many of their so called "brothers" abused them for being a "curse to the religion". The college students were heavily trolled and netizens even blamed their parents for letting them dance in front of so many people.
Following the outrage on social media, Kerala Women Commission even registered a suo-moto case against the abusers.
