The video also shows her responding to the men filming the incident. "Film the incident all you want, there is nothing wrong with what I am doing," the woman is heard saying in Kannada.

The video received over 25,000 views in an hour after it was posted and received several comments lauding the woman for her courage. Most comments also called her a "warrior" and called this the "real MeToo".

The #MeToo campaign has gained momentum in the country over the past few weeks after a tide of sexual harassment allegations were made by women against powerful men.

In a statement, Dewan Housing Finance Corporation Ltd or DHFL - a home loan company where the man worked - said, "In the light of the unfortunate incident at Davanagere, we have terminated the services of the employee with immediate effect. DHFL strongly promotes and cultivates an environment that is conducive for the safety of women. DHFL has also assured full cooperation to respective authorities with regards to any further investigation."
