The Lucknow girl was seen thrashing the man who intervened in the heated incident. She also made claims of the car hitting her. Some netizens said it was hard to take a side like the one who wrote, "Not defending the girl here but the level of support this guy gets isn't acceptable either. Yes, he stopped the car at the right time, but what if he didn't. It's a red signal, look at the way he and others are jumping the signal. He was speeding too. Don't support either."
