A video of Jaya Bachchan getting angry at fans is currently making rounds on social media. The incident occurred when Jaya Bachchan attended a prayer meeting for Bollywood actor Manoj Kumar, who passed away last Friday.
The video initially shows Jaya Bachchan standing among a small group of people. A woman is then seen tapping her on her shoulder. When Jaya turns around, a man accompanying the woman is seen taking a photo of them with a camera. Jaya Bachchan becomes visibly annoyed at the attempt to take a photo at such a solemn occasion. She reacts by brushing off the woman’s hand. The woman is then seen apologizing and walking away.
Jaya’s sudden reaction has sparked mixed responses online. While some criticized her behaviour as inappropriate, others defended her, saying it was wrong to take photos at a memorial service and that her reaction was justified.
The video has sparked a wave of reactions, with several comments stating, "Jaya Bachchan could have handled the situation in a more polite manner," "Taking photos at a mourning ceremony is inappropriate. Jaya Bachchan was right in her reaction," and "People who bring cameras to such occasions should be removed," among others.
