Expect E-Challan, Tweets Mumbai Police To Varun Dhawan For This Selfie

Where everything fails, you can be sure that public embarrassment will work. Maybe that's why the Mumbai Police called out actor Varun Dhawan on Twitter for flouting traffic rules by taking a selfie with a fan. About half an hour ago, Mumbai Police shared a picture on Twitter which shows Varun Dhawan leaning out of his car to click a selfie with a fan sitting in the autorickshaw next to him. He does not appear to be wearing a seat belt in the photo. Accompanying the picture was a sternly-worded warning for the Judwaa 2 star.

'We expected better from a responsible Mumbaikar and youth icon like you,' wrote Mumbai Police, also adding that the actor should expect an 'e-challan' or a fine soon.

Their tweet has already been retweeted over 2,000 times. About 15 minutes ago, Varun Dhawan also responded to the tweet with an apology
 

My apologies Our cars weren't moving since we were at a traffic signal and I didn't want to hurt the sentiment of a fan but next time I'll keep safety in mind and won't encourage this. https://t.co/MEJk56EksG

In turn, Mumbai Police replied saying that they're glad Varun Dhawan took their message in the right spirit.
 

Quite a galactic coincidence for the photographer to be on the same signal to capture your gesture, in a good intent nevertheless risky. Leaning out even in a stationary vehicle can be distracting for others considering your popularity. Glad you took our message in d right spirit https://t.co/jKqosfH6V3
