•Prithvi Raj Bohra, a Mumbai man, offers a unique service on the beach: listening to strangers' sorrows for a fee.
•He charges ₹250 for "small problems," ₹500 for "bigger worries," and ₹1,000 to "cry together."
•Bohra claims to be a "master of life’s problems" with expertise in psychology and philosophy, based in Andheri West.
•The viral video sparked mixed reactions, with some praising his entrepreneurship and others seeing it as a reflection of urban loneliness and lack of mental health support.
•Commenters highlighted the need for affordable, stigma-free mental health support, noting that while listening helps, it's not a substitute for therapy.
