Neitzens' reaction to viral video 

The idea, while unconventional, appears to have struck a chord with several social media users, especially in a fast-paced city where people often struggle to find someone willing to listen.

"Good business idea," a comment read. 

"With no safe space to vent in fast-paced cities like Mumbai. Being heard helps instantly. But it's no substitute for proper therapy to handle depression, anxiety or trauma. Mental health struggles are common, not weakness. We need affordable, stigma-free support badly," another individual said. 

"Therapy: ₹2,000/hr, This guy: ₹250 + empathy, Market disruption is real," a comment said. 

"Makes me sad thinking how lonely the city is," an X user said in the comment section. 

The idea, while unconventional, appears to have struck a chord with several social media users. At the same time, several users highlighted a deeper issue reflected in the video: the sense of loneliness in big cities.
