‘Kya Kar Rahe Ho Aap Log?’: Alia Bhatt Scolds Paparazzi for Following Her Inside ‘Private’ Building in Mumbai (VIDEO)
Alia Bhatt, who recently starred in Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani alongside Ranveer Singh, is now preparing for the release of her next film, Jigra, directed by Vasan Bala and featuring Vedang Raina. Usually known for her friendly demeanor toward the paparazzi, Alia lost her cool this time when the photographers crossed the line by following her into a private building.
Despite her team’s efforts to maintain boundaries, the paparazzi trailed her inside the building and even into the elevator to capture photos. Visibly upset, Alia scolded them, saying, “Kya kar rahe ho, yeh private space hai” (What are you doing here? This is my private space).
The incident was captured on video and shared on social media, sparking a conversation about respecting celebrities’ privacy. One user commented, “Paps need to draw boundaries somewhere. Some are just crossing limits in desperation for exclusive content. Alia is right to be upset.” Another user added, “She was still calm, but they have no sense. Are they even going to follow her into the lift?”
Another user remarked, “As she should. Celebrities are public figures, not public property,” while another said, “If not stopped, paparazzi will invade personal spaces like bedrooms and bathrooms.”
Meanwhile, Jigra is set to release in theaters on October 11, 2024. The film is produced by Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions and Alia Bhatt’s Eternal Sunshine Productions, marking her second production venture after Darlings in 2022.
In addition to Jigra, Alia is also working on Love and War, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, where she stars alongside her husband Ranbir Kapoor and Vicky Kaushal. She will also appear in Alpha, a film featuring Sharvari as a super agent.
