Video of women playing Holi inside Delhi Metro goes viral, sparks row

Every other day, Delhi Metro grabs the spotlight whenever videos showing fights, arguments or cringe Instagram reels go viral. One such video has come to the fore triggering a wave of criticism from netizens.

This clip shows two women clad in white sarees playing Holi in a seemingly intimate manner inside the metro coach as a Bollywood song 'Ang Laga De' is played in the background.

The scene then moves forward to the women rubbing their faces covered with colour on each other, and engaging in other provocation actions, which include attempting to kiss and pretending to sleep on each other. The clip further shows passengers in the background visibly uncomfortable as the whole act is played out.

The clip quickly sparked a massive backlash online, with netizens calling on the Delhi Metro authorities to take strong action.

One of the X users, while reacting to the video, commented, "I got too uncomfortable watching this."

Whereas another wrote, "No law required. Just a charge of Rs 1 lakh per 15 seconds
would suffice (sic)."

One user termed the act beyond intolerable, "This is beyond intolerable now, completely unbearable with this nonsense happening in our society (sic)."

“I feel really sorry for the people who had to witness it in the train and unable to do anything to stop them,” wrote one user.

Another sarcastically commented, “Delhi Metro now offering Oyo-like facilities for free? Can’t wait to see if they throw in some room service too!” A third exclaimed, “Disgusting.”

Another commenter suggested, “Delhi Metro should fine these cringy people. Metro or any public place is NOT for their cringe videos.”
