There have often been cases when celebrities went overboard, attacked and creeped out actresses. Vidya Balan, who will soon be seen in Begum Jaan, was in Kolkata for an event slammed a male fan who approached for a selfie.
In an interview to Spotboye, the actress mentioned that she was at the Kolkata airport with the director Srijit Mukherji and the producer of the film when a fan approached her for a selfie. Just when she obliged, the man put his arm around her without taking her permission. Even though Vidya warned him to behave, the man apparently didn’t pay attention.
But when he tried to put his arm around her again Vidya lashed out at him. “What do you think you are doing? This is wrong," she retorted. Since the fan insisted on taking a picture, she said, "No you can’t, behave yourself!" and walked away. While this isn’t the first time that a celebrity has faced such a situation, we are happy that Vidya at least retaliated.
Vidya will soon be seen in Begum Jaan, a Hindi adaptation of Mukherji’s stellar Bengali offering Rajkahini. Vidya plays a brothel’s madam in Punjab during India’s partition in 1947. Though actress Rituparna Sengupta essayed the lead role in the Bengali version, Mukherji’s first choice for the adaptation was Vidya.
