It's not the first time that Deepika Padukone has expressed reluctance to be photographed by paparazzi. Last year, her husband Ranveer Singh walked the ramp for Manish Malhotra's grand bridal couture show in Mumbai. Deepika, along with her mother-in-law Anju Bhavnani, attended the event to show their support. When the paparazzi attempted to take photos, Deepika said, “Aaplog yahaan allowed nahin hain. Yeh backstage hai, please. [You all are not allowed here. This is backstage please.]”
A fan page shared the video on Instagram with the text: “Deepika Padukone is the best one to undermine the media people and come off looking good. Media and papz always cross the line, better call them off every now and then.”
