‘You Do Not Deserve A Pet": Shanaya Kapoor Slams Man After Dog Slips Under Moving Train at Jhansi Railway Station (Watch Video)

Actor Shanaya Kapoor is not just gearing up for her much-anticipated debut on the big screen—she’s also using her platform to speak out on issues that matter deeply to her. Known for her advocacy for animal welfare, Shanaya recently voiced her concern on social media after watching a disturbing viral video. The video showed a heart-stopping moment where a man attempted to board a moving train at Jhansi Railway station while dragging his golden retriever alongside him. In the frantic rush, the dog lost its footing, slipped off the platform, and narrowly escaped being run over by the train. The golden retriever managed to crawl to safety, but not without leaving viewers distressed by the sheer negligence on display. Shanaya didn’t hold back. Sharing the clip on her Instagram stories, she wrote: “No pet deserves to suffer due to human negligence. If you can’t ensure their safety, you do not deserve a pet. Heartbreaking.” Her strong words struck a chord with her followers and sparked a much-needed conversation on the responsibilities that come with pet ownership.
