Bengaluru Viral Video: An incident where Simi Nair, a resident of the Monarch Serenity Apartment Complex, willfully destroyed a Pookalam made by children on the common area of the building has triggered public outcry in Bengaluru. Pookalam, a traditional flower arrangement, celebrated Onam and was indeed the brainchild of many children who participated in each effort of the flowers in a colorful arrangement.

In the Bengaluru Viral Video we can see , Nair deliberately stepped through the delicate flower arrangement, scattering the carefully placed flowers and thus effectively ruining the creation so nicely made for the festival. This has caused chaos in children and their families, as Onam is a kind of cultural event where Pookalams are very special in the celebrations, especially in Kerala.
Bengaluru Viral Video and images of the destroyed Pookalam went viral on the social media, and it started generating widespread criticism towards Nair's behavior. Several users made a scathing comment on her apparent lack of respect for cultural tradition as well as for the children who had, in fact, spent all their energy making the ornamentation. A series of upsets was witnessed within the housings with many calling for Nair to be brought to book for her acts of disrespect.
The criticism this incidence has elicited is sparking important discussions over the respect of cultural practices, especially in a city like Bengaluru, which is known to be multicultural. This brings out concern from residents, who called for tolerance and appreciation for other cultures in the community.
Neither Nair nor the apartment authorities have responded officially to the incident so far. However, undoubtedly the incident has gone on to make an impact on the joyous festive spirit in the community by leaving all of them to question values of respect and inclusion as pertinent facets of a multicultural society.
