What begins with a look at the property&#8217;s view and amenities soon turns into a discussion about some of the basic issues she says her family has been dealing with.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"7\"\/>Her comments have also led social media users to share their own views about life in high-rise societies.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"9\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>She starts with the view from her 19th-floor home<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"11\"\/>Sweety begins the video by showing the view from her home and the swimming pool in the society. She also talks about the price of the apartments there.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"13\"\/>\u201cFriends, let me show you something really interesting. Look at this; this is my society, we live on the 19th floor. Look at this \u2013 what a view, right?
