MUMBAI: Amruta Fadnavis, the wife of Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, said Monday that she was ready to apologise after a video, showing her clicking a selfie sitting on the edge of a cruise ship, went viral.

She, however, maintained that the spot where she was sitting was safe.

After the video circulated, Amruta Fadnavis had faced trolling on Twitter for allegedly taking a selfie in a risky way.

She was attending the inauguration of domestic cruise liner Angriya here on October 20.

"The spot where I clicked selfie was not dangerous because there were two more steps below," she told a Marathi news channel today.

"If anyone thinks I have made some mistake, then I apologise for it," she said.

"I want to tell the youth that they should not take excessive risk to take a selfie," she added.
