Udaipur Harassment Case
When the Indian YouTuber was touring across the landscapes of the Rajasthan-based city with his Russian wife Lisa and their two-year-old son Ayan, a stranger made striking remarks towards the woman. In a racial catcall, the local man disrespectfully looked at Lisa and made the comment that 'Russian would be available for Rs. 6,000', which angered Mithilesh.
The wife was harassed while the family was exploring Udaipur’s City Palace and filming a video of their holiday.
As the words are associated with sexual connotations and intending to rent a sex worker for a rate, the YouTuber was upset by someone making such derogatory remarks about his lady love.
Soon, Mithilesh, confronted the man and said, “6,000 INR kisko bolta, merko samajhta nahi kya? (Don’t I understand whom you are saying 6,000 to?)” Meri wife Russian hai toh tu ulta seedha comment dega? (My wife is Russian, so you’ll make such comments?)”.
So far, Harsh Gujral has not responded to the criticism he has attracted on social media.
