Actor and model Natasa Stankovic was at the centre of social media chatter after a video of her dancing at a college event went viral, attracting a mix of criticism and strong public support. The clip, shared online by a user, showed Natasa performing at a duet dance competition held at Pillai University in Navi Mumbai on February 6, where she had been invited as a judge.

Shortly after the video was posted, a section of social media users mocked her performance, linking it disparagingly to her personal life following her divorce from Indian cricketer Hardik Pandya.

One commenter wrote that after her separation, she had become “so unemployed that she had to dance at colleges just to live,” a remark that sparked backlash from many online.

However, the reaction wasn’t all negative. A significant number of netizens came forward to defend Natasa.

“No alimony. No sympathy drama on any reality shows. No slys on man who cheated on her. Minds her own business and works. She's still getting targeted because she's a woman. Kudos to Natasha for how she has been after divorce with Hardik,” one wrote, with another sharing, “Believe me her annual earning is something you will never gonna earn in your lifetime. Instead of passing personal comments on others here, do better things with your life.”

“At least she didn’t go on Bigg Boss or TV show like Dhanashree, didn’t create any drama, and didn’t give any interviews against Hardik. She’s just living her life, and people still have a problem with that,” one noted. One mentioned, “Women living her life peacefully, raising her kid alone, making money on her own , not doing drama.”

One wrote, “She must be invited as a guest to a college fest. Even Shraddha Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra and other Bollywood actresses go to such fests. What is your point?”, with another sharing, “She is an Artist and earning the money by performing on stage and you are who is trying to earn by posting her video.”
