"Indian Thriller" meme

A viral video involving Donga stems from a scene featuring a song called Golimar (Shoot the Bullet). The scene contains choreography and elements which appear to be very similar to Michael Jackson's music video for Thriller (which leads to the common nickname for the video, "Indian Thriller").^[1]

A further parody of the scene by Mike Sutton (Buffalax) entitled "Indian Thriller with English lyrics" features subtitles with English mondegreens of the lyrics. producing lines such as "Girly man" instead of "Golimar", and "Nippley man I met, he ate my motorboat!" or "I'll eat wasabi on my dude."^[1] He has also produced similar spoofs with other songs, including "Benny Lava", a spoof of a song from the Tamil film Pennin Manathai Thottu.^[1]
