Actor Neha Dhupia hosts a chat show where everyone is supposed to speak their mind – no holds barred – and she herself isn’t one to mince her words.
And so, she quips, “I’m not even that famous. I come with no sense of entitlement to ever having a bodyguard.” The reason Neha refers to a possible need for bodyguards is her recent experiences with fan frenzy – following a car accident in Chandigarh, fans hassled her for selfies instead of helping her; before that, a man literally grabbed her arm at a joggers’ park and demanded a selfie; and a flight co-passenger filmed the actor for about an hour while she slept.
What were they thinking? As a famous face, Neha finds this occasionally amusing and sometimes downright off-putting.
In the joggers’ park incident, the man grabbed her arm not to plead for a chance to get on television (because Neha is associated with the show Roadies), as was reported in the media, but for a selfie.
