Two magnificent Indian cobras were spotted dancing in Raygada, Odisha. The snakes were assumed to be a male and a female, as various mating couples are usually seen dancing at several places in the country. The spectators were surprised and excited to witness such a rare sight. Superstition made an appearance as people began to throw clothes at the dancing divas, which is a mark of good luck if the cobras slide over them. People shot videos and were enthralled by the spectacular action.
