Sharing the video, the Instagram handle wrote, “Well it looks like we’re going to have to find a new past time. If you’re a female planning on coming to India, I wouldn’t come without a body guard of a man lol. Whether you are sunbathing or fully clothed, we are finding this behavior very common in India.”
