What happened at the event?

Mouni penned a long note on her Instagram Stories on Saturday to detail what happened at the event. She began, “Had an event at Karnal last and I am disgusted at the behaviour of the guests specially two uncles who are well aged to be grandparents. As the event started and walked on the stage uncles and family members (all men) put their hands on my waist to click pictures. Didn't like it when I said, ‘Sir pls remove your hand.’ On stage is even a better story. Two uncles stood right infront making lewd remarks showing lewd hand gestures, name calling I realised that and first politely gestured to them don't do it to which they started throwing roses at me.”
