Fans React To Hema Malini’s Gesture

In the viral video posted on Instagram by Instant Bollywood, Hema Malini was visibly uncomfortable as a female fan tried to touch her waist non-consensually while clicking pictures. The comment section is flooded with comments after netizens watched the video. One Instagram user criticised, commenting, “Hema Malini aur Jaya Bachchan dono ghamandi aurte hain,” while another supported writing, “I understand that this behaviour is not good but it is also not appropriate to come into someone’s personal space or touching them without permission, fans should also understand that there is a thin line of personal space, and also celebs can politely convey this to the fans.” While one netizen wrote, “Jab vote lene aati ho tab to ni hoti,” another expressed, “It’s not about the celebrities being rude, the fan should have asked is it okay for me to put my arm around you? Put yourself in their position surely you’ll do the same.”
