Fit check interrupted! Influencer demands ‘civic sense’ while blocking public walkway

In a video that quickly went viral, Indian influencer Amulya Rattan , who has 4.6 million followers on Instagram , was seen filming a “fit check” on a busy street in what appears to be Dubai . The clip shows her mid-shoot when a man casually walks through the frame, interrupting her recording.

Reacting to the interruption, Amulya turns to the camera visibly annoyed and urges the man to show “ civic sense ” and apologise for the brief disturbance. She expressed frustration that the pedestrian walked right through her shot without noticing.

The video sparked strong criticism online, with many viewers questioning her attitude. Critics pointed out that public sidewalks are shared spaces and not reserved for influencers to use as a personal filming spot. Several comments highlighted that the pedestrian was simply walking on a public path, and asked whether influencers should expect the public to pause for their content.

This incident has reignited discussions about the increasing use of public spaces by content creators . Many believe that while influencers have the right to create content, they should also respect the fact that shared spaces belong to everyone, not just those shooting videos.

As social media continues to blur the lines between personal expression and public etiquette, incidents like these remind creators and followers alike to strike a balance between content creation and civic responsibility.
