Overview
- An Instagram clip shared by influencer Khushi Dubey went viral on Tuesday after showing a heated exchange with a waiter identified in the footage as Hossain during a restaurant visit in Italy.
- In the recording the waiter repeatedly uses profanity and is heard referring to the group as being from "f***ing India," which led the women to demand a direct apology.
- Italian police appear on scene in the video and, after the women press him, the waiter is heard saying "I'm sorry for abusing India."
- News outlets note the footage does not show what triggered the dispute and none of the reports have independently verified the full context or authenticity of the video.
- The clip has drawn wide online praise for the women and renewed calls for the restaurant to be named, a development that could prompt formal complaints or reputational consequences for the establishment.
