The current growth of short-video platforms has caused a radically different situation in India. Short videos on social media sites like Instagram, TikTok, Vmate, and Likee are increasingly being used by individuals, businesses, and others in India to promote themselves and showcase their talents, such as acting, singing, dancing, and culinary skills.
While such programmes, on the one hand, offer a brilliant platform for budding talent who cannot afford a studio to make a lovely video like Bollywood celebs, on the other side, they occasionally generate a great deal of trouble for users as well as those who are nearby.
In a similar incident, a woman was hired to record a dance reel within the Hyderabad Metro after her video went popular on several social media sites.
Hyderabadi woman arrested for filming an Instagram video inside a metro
A woman was charged with breaching the law by dancing for her Instagram video in public. Though the video of her dancing to the Tamil song has gained a lot of attention on Twitter, it seems that not everyone finds it amusing. On a subway platform and inside a train, a young woman may be seen appearing to film videos for an Instagram reel.
Have a look at her video

Many people criticised and labelled the young child as a nuisance. While some Twitter users appeared unconcerned, the bulk wondered why such behaviours were permitted on public transportation.

She is currently in serious trouble after a Twitter user submitted a woman’s video of herself dancing aboard a Hyderabad metro train to Hyderabad Metro Rail Limited (HMRL).
As soon as HMRL learned about the video, according to the authorities, she would be subject to punishment. Since photography and filming are prohibited inside the train and on the platform, action has been taken, according to HMRL’s public relations officer Krishnanand Malladi, in response to a Twitter complaint. He stated:
“It’s true that people do it often but if caught, it’s an offence, as there is no permission. Acts like dance are also not allowed on the train or on the platform.”
The PRO said that even though the woman in the video hasn’t been identified yet, she would likely receive a fine for producing it.
Photographing from the street level, the concourse level, or the ticketing area is prohibited under HMRL regulations. According to a representative of L&T Metro Rail, specific permission and payment are necessary for shooting motion pictures, television programmes, advertising, and documentaries.
The Metro Railways Act does not directly mention photography or video, but other offences like being intoxicated on the metro and causing a nuisance are punishable by fines of up to Rs 500.
Nevertheless, her video has consistently gained popularity, and people are commenting on it.
Don't encourage this type of useless things.

Metro is not your private property to deal.

Come on India!
Yrr means you have not courage to stand with truth in any serious case.
You will not raise your voice to support a victim who really needs.
You can't open your mouth against the reall crime which really harms……
What do you think about her video? Ping us in the comment section.
