Bhumi Pednekar is shocked to see the mentality of the youth in today’s age.
What Bhumi wrote
In a video that was shared by the Instagram account Tube Indian, some men were allegedly seen behaving inappropriately with a woman’s wall painting near a swimming pool. The incident quickly spread across social media and triggered strong reactions.
Bhumi shared the video on her Instagram Stories and wrote, “This is the mentality of our youth. These are the same people who are going to sexually assault children and women. We are in a pandemic. Just words and showing shame isn’t enough. Stricter laws, stricter laws, stricter laws.”
The actor said, “Breaks my heart to see under age boys go through with something so heinous. Imagine the environments they are growing up in. We are punishing the voiceless in our country, and have sensationalised, dogs being a threat.”
In the last few days, Kangana Ranaut and Ridhi Dogra have raised their voices on the issues of women getting married and not valuing their own independence enough.
