Actress Sumona Chakravarti recounted a frightening experience while driving through South Bombay during the Maratha Morcha protest. She described being blocked by a mob, with protesters banging on her car and shouting slogans, leaving her feeling unsafe during broad daylight. Her post highlights concern over public safety and civic responsibility despite citizens paying heavy taxes.
Taking to her Instagram she shared a long note that started with, “12:30 this afternoon. I`m driving from Colaba to Fort. And suddenly-my car is blocked by a mob. One man with an orange stole banging on my bonnet, smirking. Pressing his protruding belly against my car. Shimmying in front of me like he`s proving some sick point. His friends banging on my windows, shouting "Jai Maharashtra!" & laughing. We moved a little ahead & repeat of the same thing. Twice in a span of 5 mins. No police. (The ones we saw later were just sitting, chatting, hanging) No law & order.”
