Sumona Chakravarti deletes Instagram post after narrating scary mob incident in Mumbai

Actress Sumona Chakravarti recently shared a shocking experience on Instagram after her car was surrounded by protesters in broad daylight. However, soon after the actress deleted the post without giving any reason. In her note, the actress expressed her anger at the protesters who misbehaved and mobbed her in South Bombay, saying the incident left her feeling unsafe in her own city.On Sunday, Sumona described the entire incident on her Instagram story. She wrote: “12:30 this afternoon. I’m driving from Colaba to Fort, and suddenly my car is blocked by a mob. One man with an orange stole banging on my bonnet, smirking. Pressing his protruding belly against my car. Shimmying in front of me like he’s proving some sick point. His friends were banging on my windows, shouting ‘Jai Maharashtra!’ and laughing. We moved a little ahead, and the same thing repeated. Twice in a span of 5 minutes. No police. (The ones we saw later were just sitting, chatting, hanging.) No law and order."She continued, describing what she saw around her: “Just me, in my car, in broad daylight, in South Bombay — feeling unsafe. And the streets? Piled with banana peels, plastic bottles, filth. Pavements taken over. Protesters eating, sleeping, bathing, cooking, pissing, shitting, video calling, making reels, doing Mumbai darshan in the name of protest. A complete mockery of civic sense."Sumona further admitted that this was the first time in years she had felt unsafe in Mumbai. She wrote: “I suddenly felt lucky — lucky that a male friend was with me. I couldn’t help but think, if I had been alone, then what??? I was tempted to record a video but quickly realised that this might provoke/instigate them further. So, I didn’t. It’s frightening when you realise that no matter who you are, or where you are, law and order can collapse in seconds."In her caption, Sumona spoke about her disappointment with the situation and questioned the idea of a “progressive” India. She said: “Not the Digital Bharat they keep talking about. Because when casteism, religion, politics, corruption, bureaucracy, illiteracy and unemployment are running the show — this isn’t development. It’s decay.”Her post sparked discussions online, but since she has now taken it down, the reason behind her decision to delete it remains unclear.
