Overview
- A Domino's pizza delivery agent, Rohit Lavare, was harassed by a Mumbai couple who insisted he speak Marathi to receive payment.
- The incident took place on May 12 at the Sai Radhe building in Bhandup, a suburb of Mumbai, and was captured on video by Lavare.
- The video, now viral with over 147,000 views, shows the couple refusing to pay and asserting Marathi as a mandatory language in the region.
- This confrontation has reignited debates on linguistic enforcement in Maharashtra, where non-Marathi speakers have faced similar pressures in recent weeks.
- Domino's has yet to issue a statement on the incident, as public criticism grows over coercive language demands in everyday interactions.
