Recently, Indian influencer Anish Bhagat shined a light on one such story, sharing a powerful and emotional moment with his followers that reminded us all of the resilience and strength that can emerge from unimaginable circumstances.

His latest Instagram post, however, took things to a deeply personal level, bringing attention to the life of Roxy, a sex worker from one of India’s most prominent red-light districts.
The video Bhagat posted captured the raw and honest moments of their meeting. In the video, Roxy welcomed Bhagat into her modest home, showing him the space she rents and revealing the painful history of how she ended up in this life. “My uncle brought me here after my father’s death, promising to help me with a job here but he instead sold me,” she shares with a heavy heart.
Despite her difficult journey, Roxy finds solace in simple joys—like reading books. “I feel the pain of women by being here. Our life is a waste. Stop rape, come to us,” she says, her words filled with a raw urgency that deeply resonates.
When Bhagat asks if there’s anything he can do for her, Roxy expresses a desire to experience something new: sushi. And so the two head out to enjoy this small but meaningful treat together. The video ends with them laughing and sharing a moment of joy, a rare but beautiful reminder of the power of human connection.
The Netizens Showered Immense Love On The Video
The video was shared widely, and in no time, it garnered more than 17.7 million views. The reactions from netizens were both heartwarming and heartbreaking. Many praised Roxy for her strength and resilience, while others were moved by the powerful message she shared. Comments flooded in, with one user writing, “The way she says ‘Stop rape and come to us’—it’s so painful to hear.” Another added, “‘Stop rape—come to us.’ Words cannot describe the power here.”
One comment stood out with its reflection on Anish’s role in this moment: “Dear Anish, Stay blessed, beta. You are doing an amazing job. I wish the world had more youngsters like you. Keep shaping reality. God bless you!” People sent their love and prayers to Roxy, hoping she could one day find hope and the ability to dream again.
The story of Roxy and her encounter with Anish Bhagat serves as a powerful reminder of the untold struggles that many face in silence.
