In the shared video, Prince Charles could be seen getting out of his vehicle and extending his hand to greet one of the guests before he quickly changes his gesture to a namaste upon realising the precautionary measure in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak.
As the post went viral, social media went abuzz with reactions.
A user wrote, "Now our millennials will accept it coz the whites are doing it. But had any Indian done on a social gathering before COVID 19, he would have been ridiculed by the same lot."
Another wrote, "Slowly but surely our way of greeting is picking up worldwide."
