Viral Video: What was meant to be a peaceful sunbathing moment for two American sisters at a hotel in Delhi turned into a deeply uncomfortable experience. In a video shared on Instagram, Rory and Sage, sisters traveling the world with their parents, claimed that a man was secretly recording them from his hotel window while they relaxed by the pool in bikinis. The camera in their clip zooms in on the man, who appears to be holding up his phone and pointing it directly at them. While it's not confirmed whether he was actually filming, the family strongly believed he was, and they didn’t stay silent.
Clearly disturbed, their mother starts recording the man from their end. "Someone is filming us and they are not being discreet," she says in the video. She then calls over her husband and tells him, visibly upset, that all three of them are being watched. The incident left the family shaken, especially as they said this wasn’t the first uncomfortable encounter they'd faced in India. In their caption, they wrote: “If you’re a female planning on coming to India, I wouldn’t come without a bodyguard of a man. Whether you are sunbathing or fully clothed, we are finding this behaviour very common in India.”
The video quickly went viral, drawing thousands of reactions and sparking anger about the ongoing issue of women’s safety and privacy in public and private spaces, especially for foreign tourists visiting India.

The viral video was shared on the social media platform Instagram by the handle 'roryandsageofficial'. The video, shared seven days ago, garnered 8.7 million views from people. Social media users were quick to react to the viral video. While many users chastised the man, others justified his act. One user wrote, "Please report it to the hotel, not the staff present, but some senior management, and they will take action. If not, you can even file a report with the police. This should not be taken lightly and we need strict actions from foreigners, so that they can start taking local women seriously too. It might be a hassle to talk about it, you can send them an email too."

"Traveling to India for a Bikini vacation will only ruin your holiday girlies, even if you walk in your pjs men will keep staring and for foreigners girls they will behave they have seen god they dont have basic etiquette respect or any sense of boundaries so don’t go at all even we aren’t safe!" a second user added. "In a culture where it is appropriate for women not to roam around naked, if you are roaming around naked, what do you expect?? Would you do the same in Pakistan or Bangladesh? No... in a Muslim country you'd even wear a bloody Hijab around town, but suddenly in India you wanna go naked and expect people to be something they can't be. Even Indian girls don't sit in the open wearing bikinis," added a third user.
"Imagine an Indian in traditional attire walking along a busy street in London. Everyone would stare, and some may even record, right? We don't call them whites creep. But when you white people come to India and wear bikinis, of course it's uncommon here and people stare and some may record," a fourth user added. "So people can’t peek outside their window because you are tanning ?? Girl, please go on a different planet!" added another user.
