This is everyone’s experience but not everyone’s reaction. Most of us freeze or take too long to process due to the shock. Kudos to Mansi for reacting quickly, then taking the matter forward in society and with police.
Social media influencer Mansi Manju Satish Suravase faced harassment while filming a reel in her apartment building’s staircase. Dressed in a red blouse and white skirt, she was adjusting her makeup when a man in a striped shirt approached and inappropriately tried to touch her. Mansi courteously stepped aside, but he persisted. She confronted him, delivering a sharp slap, captured on video. Posted on Instagram, the clip went viral, sparking discussions on victim-blaming and safety. The man’s family claimed he had mental health issues, which Mansi questioned, highlighting societal excuses for such behavior.
