Violence Against Women - What Would You Do?

When it comes to violence against women and people's reaction to situations we have seen that in most cases people are silent witnesses.
That's why we need campaigns like Bell Bajao (=Ring the Doorbell) which encourages people to get and do something when they witness domestic violence in their neighbourhood.
But what about the situations when it's not happening behind closed door? What would you do if you see a woman being manhandled in a public place?
Here's a very powerful video that I recently watched.

Very good video. I hope this happens when the couple are non-actors.

Good you shared this one.

Thanks Keyur,

When it happened, those who did react were not aware of the fact that these are actors. It was only after they reacted the way they did that they were informed about this. This is the whole beauty of the experiment.
