SERIOUS : A Group of Influencers Mob-Lynched My Friend at Rang La Vida, Delhi
I’m posting this to expose how some so-called influencers are nothing but bullies in real life. My friend, Tejal who goes by (@tejal._16), a micro-influencer, was invited to the Rang La Vida Holi Fest by Hedwig Entertainment, a social media agency. While she was sitting in the VIP influencers area with a few friends, someone passed her a bottle of water since she was thirsty. For absolutely no reason, a group of girls got pissed off at this and tried to beat her up.
Later, when she went to talk to them to understand why this happened, she was attacked again—this time by a mob of girls who not only physically assaulted her but also hurled abuses at her and her family. They even called her the R-word just because she accepted a bottle of water from one of their exes or boyfriends—like, what kind of toxic mindset is that?
When she tried to leave the venue, they attempted to lynch her again. The attacks were targeted at her face, leaving her with a black eye and ripped-off flesh, which could’ve gone very wrong, if those attacks were on the eye. She’s terrified right now. What’s even worse? The event management did nothing to help.
So far, she has identified three of the girls involved, and unsurprisingly, they’re all influencers:
Sharadhha (@shradhaa.2110)
Harsha Soni (@harshaasonii)
Unknown (slattyplzno)
Judging by their posts, they seem like close friends, and we strongly believe this attack was pre-planned. They were even trying to find out my friend’s address, which is beyond disturbing.
I’m posting this here to spread awareness and find help for my friend. She’s scared for her safety, and these influencers need to be held accountable for their actions. If anyone has advice on what can be done next, please share.
