As the country complains of incessant rain and parts of the norther India looms under flooded water. A young girl and her photographer friend were criticized for a recent photo shoot that they have been a part of.
The girl has been identified as Aditi Singh, who is a student based in National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT), Patna. She became viral on social media after posing in the flooded streets of Boring Road.
Currently, all her pictures have been trending on social media for the last 24 hours. In the pictures, the girl is seen draped in a half-slit red dress and posing in heels.
The photographer who shot the pictures amidst the flooded streets of Bihar posted them online. He has also been identified as Saurabh Anuraj, who told media that, "It's not that easy. Come see what hard work it takes to send out a message. By sitting in the balcony, shooting videos and criticisng others won't really help."
As soon as the photos went viral, users on social media criticized both the model and photographer. Anuraj, who runs a photography agency called the Meow Studio, captioned the photos saying 'mermaid in disaster'.
On looking at the comments, one user said, "You Cannot Romanticise or Glorify a natural Calamity" and another claimed it to be cheap publicity.
After hours of being trolled, Saurabh took to another Instagram account and posted clips of a video of how the shoot was done and under what difficulties. "No one ever has the wish to stand on gutter water and pose. Everyone has their own ways of sending out a message to the world."
