In an intriguing encounter on the bustling streets of Mumbai, a small boy approached me while I was setting up to shoot a video. He asked me for money. Adhering to my principle of not fostering a begging culture potentially orchestrated by adults, I refused to give him money. However, his persistence led me to an alternative gesture—I decided to buy him ice cream. Was this decision misguided?

Video Description

On a busy day in Mumbai, as I prepared to film, a young boy approached me seeking monetary help. I chose not to support the begging industry that might be benefiting his guardians, but his tenacity moved me to offer him a treat instead—an ice cream. This decision, seemingly innocent, brings up several ethical questions. Did I do the right thing?
