A recent incident in Paris has sparked social media outrage after a group of Indian men was filmed loudly chanting nationalist slogans near a street mime performer. The video, shot in the Montmartre area, shows one individual putting his arm around the mime and shouting, while others join in with slogans like 'Jai Maharashtra' and 'Jai Shiv Sena'.
The mime performer, evidently uncomfortable, attempted to signal the group to cease their chants. Despite his evident distress, the group continued, drawing criticism for their disregard for public decorum. The video has become a point of contention, prompting discussions about appropriate public behavior and the expression of nationalism while abroad.
Posts on social media have labeled the tourists' actions as harassment, with viewers condemning their behavior as disrespectful to the artist's space. Calls for stricter visitor conduct regulations and respect for cultural performances have grown following the incident.
