Bollywood actress Janhvi Kapoor has strongly condemned a disturbing incident from Kalyan that has ignited outrage across social media. A viral video shows a man identified as Gokul Jha violently dragging a female hospital receptionist by her hair after she refused his demand to jump the queue. The victim sustained multiple injuries and is currently receiving treatment at a hospital in Dombivli. Authorities have arrested the accused.
Expressing her anger and disbelief on Instagram stories, Janhvi wrote, “This man needs to be in jail. Why does anyone think this behaviour is ok? What makes him think he can raise his hand at someone like this?” She continued, “What kind of upbringing convinces you to act like this without remorse, guilt, or humanity? How do you live with yourself knowing this is how your mind works?
What a shame. And shame on us for not punishing and condemning such behaviour more aggressively. Nothing excuses this.”Her heartfelt message resonated deeply with fans and followers, sparking renewed conversations about everyday violence against women and the urgent need for accountability. Janhvi’s vocal stance highlights the important role celebrities play in raising awareness and demanding justice in such cases.
