The video does not only depict a very regular day for these women but also highlights the harmful stunt that all of them are pulling. The ‘X’ user who uploaded the video has pointed out how this has been glamorised by many people. “You’ll find this sad, scary, substandard living. But the affluent, wokes living comfortably in South Bombay glamorise this as the ‘spirit of Mumbai’, a ‘jhunjhuna’ given to the common Mumbaikars so that they feel better about their misery and don’t ask for better infrastructure,” he wrote.
Here, have a look at the video:

Since being uploaded, the video has gathered over 745K views. “Bollywood glamorised the Bombay dream which led to massive migration after 70s and it has ended like this for millions,” commented an ‘X’ user. Another person wrote, “On top of all that it’s extremely dangerous. I never board a train like this at all.”
“And then these women with those huge backpacks stand in front of the door even if their station is 20 stations away and make it even more difficult for people to enter,” commented another person.
I spent three years of my life travelling daily on the local train, and it was a unique and enjoyable experience. I believe everyone should try it at least once; it's truly one of a kind.— Poswal Saheb™ (@jposwal) September 16, 2023
