Review Year 2021: 5 Times When Bollywood Celebs Were Rude To Fans And The Paparazzi

Bollywood celebs are always in the public eye of course because of the kind of life they lead. They have now managed to proceed and conduct themselves in a certain way around the public and they do it with grace. There are times when fans or the media have made them uncomfortable with their probing questions or asking for photos constantly. Certain celebrities have lost their calm when someone tried to invade their space, over time.

1. Priyanka Chopra

Priyanka Chopra is a global sensation and has both a huge offline and online fan following. Being in public is now something she is used to but she has come across run-ins with some fans who overstepped her boundaries at times.

In 2016, Priyanka was promoting her film ‘Jai Gangaajal’ where she revealed how she slapped a fan when he invaded her space forcing her to take a picture. She said that the fan had held on to both her arms right after she stepped out of her RV and kept insisting on getting pictures with her. The actor shared that she got really scared and anxious with someone physically touching her without her permission and she ended up slapping him.

2. Shah Rukh Khan

Shah Rukh Khan, the king of Bollywood, is known for his biggest and kind heart. He always has time for his fans but there have been some instances when he too lost his temper over someone grabbing him. Shah Rukh Khan once said in an interview with a leading newspaper that he has a rule while meeting fans which he has instructed to his bodyguards. He instructed them that any fan below the age of 25 is allowed to act silly or childish as he has teenage kids and he understands the act.

However, the actor was shooting for his movie in Amsterdam when he had an encounter with a fan that left him startled. When the star got out of his car, he was surrounded by fans within seconds. One person approached him and allegedly grabbed his neck which was a danger to his safety. Shah Rukh ultimately pushed the fan away and was miffed at the behavior. He, however, regained his calm and continued taking pictures with fans sweetly.

3. Aishwarya Rai

Aishwarya Rai is one the most influential actors who is known worldwide. She won Miss World in 1994 and is an inspiring celebrity. Wherever Aishwarya goes, she gets surrounded by fans in an instant but she too has had her moment of disappointment over fans.

In 2013, Aishwarya Rai was invited to inaugurate a popular jewelry store in Ludhiana. Thousands of fans mobbed her and she was about to fall due to this heavy rush. And even then, no space was given to her to walk ahead to the store. Angry, she canceled her media briefing and left the store with disappointment.

4. Ranbir Kapoor

In 2013, Ranbir Kapoor along with his friends Ayan Mukerji and Aarti Shetty was spotted at a restaurant late at night and he had lost control of his temper getting frustrated with the media. The actor was reportedly a bit tipsy when he left the restaurant. He was aware that the paps were waiting for him outside the restaurant and to avoid being clicked he rushed out. Unable to avoid being clicked left him infuriated and out of frustration he snatched a journalist’s camera. Ranbir refused to give him back the camera until he called his superior to get it back. Even after this incident, a few cameramen followed him home.

5. Saif Ali Khan

Saif Ali Khan, the Nawab of Pataudi, was spotted at the airport with his wife Kareena and his son, Taimur Ali Khan on January 12, 2020. Once they exited the airport, they were crowded by the fans and media demanding pictures. Saif is usually calm but at that point, he lost his temper as fans kept touching and clicking them. The actor was carrying his son in his arms and he kept insisting fans to stay away. A fan pulled his arm before Saif made his way to the car with his son and on the other hand, Kareena was left behind as the fans did not give her the way.
