Strange occurrences on the Delhi Metro have become a daily spectacle, with nothing appearing particularly shocking anymore. From individuals applying makeup to others singing devotional songs in the train, social media has seen it all. Recently, a new video has surfaced that has caught the attention of many. It features a woman calmly standing by the metro door, a book in one hand, and a sheet mask adorning her face. She appeared relaxed in a coach that was only partially filled.

Upon its release on social media, the video drew mixed reactions from users. Many questioned the need for recording her without consent, while others defended her right to practice self-care in public. The video, shared by the account 'thedopeindian' on Instagram, included the caption, "From N95 masks to sheet masks in public, we’ve seen it all. But what’s this new trend?" It has garnered over 1.1 million views since being posted six days ago, prompting a flurry of comments from viewers.

Commenters had varied opinions on the video. One user remarked, "She’s not bothering anyone; let her be. What’s the issue?" Another added, "This is self-love... everything seems to be a problem in India." Some users criticized the act of filming without consent, emphasizing the importance of respecting privacy. Others pointed out that she was simply enjoying her own space without disturbing anyone.

One comment read, "At least she’s not causing a scene or making others uncomfortable; good for her!" Another user expressed frustration over the trend of filming strangers, stating, "She is living her life. Our society is strange." Many echoed similar sentiments, arguing that there was nothing wrong with her actions and questioning the need to share such moments online.
