Suspense crime, Digital Desk : Veteran actress and Member of Parliament Jaya Bachchan is once again in the spotlight for a sharp exchange with paparazzi. The incident occurred as she attended the prayer meet for filmmaker Rono Mukerji, the father of actress Rani Mukerji and brother of Deb Mukherjee.
Upon her arrival at the solemn event, Bachchan visibly expressed her displeasure at being photographed. As photographers clicked her, she was reportedly heard admonishing them with strong words, calling them "Bakwas log" (Nonsense/Worthless people) and "Gande log" (Dirty people). Videos of the encounter quickly circulated online.
This is not the first time Jaya Bachchan has had a public confrontation with the media. She is known for her often stern demeanor towards photographers and has frequently voiced her disapproval of what she perceives as intrusive media behavior, especially when her personal space or privacy is involved.
The recent interaction has sparked a fresh wave of discussion among netizens. While some users understand a desire for privacy, particularly at a sensitive occasion like a prayer meet, many felt Bachchan's choice of words was overly harsh and disrespectful. Comments like "Ye ab jyada hi bol rhi hai" (She is speaking too much/crossing the line now) surfaced, indicating a sentiment that her reactions are becoming increasingly severe. Others defended the paparazzi, stating they were merely doing their job by covering a public event attended by public figures.
The incident highlights the ongoing tension between celebrity privacy and the persistent gaze of the media, especially in a culture where celebrity movements are closely followed. Rono Mukerji, a respected figure in the film industry, passed away recently, and the prayer meet was attended by several industry personalities.
