The video shows Tara making her way to a store in Mumbai. She is dressed in an all-white outfit and wearing black sunglasses. As she approaches the entrance, she is surrounded by photographers, while members of her staff try to shield her with umbrellas.

Amid the crowd, a photographer appears to move very close to Tara with his camera. The actor then pushes his camera aside before continuing towards the store.

However, some photographers are also heard calling out Tara’s name in a mocking manner, with their behaviour bordering on catcalling. A few of them can be heard asking Tara to wait and pose for photographs after the incident.

Fans come to Tara's defence

The video did not go down well with several social media users, who criticised the paparazzi for invading Tara's personal space. One Reddit user questioned the way the photographer called out to Tara and wrote, “Look at them calling Tara as if they are calling their wife.” Another comment read, “She should have just pushed them stronger. How dare they call her? They sound like Taraaa, Taraahhh. Such clowns.” “Paps don’t understand the concept of personal space,” another user wrote. “Should have pushed harder. This was well deserved,” read another comment.

About Tara Sutaria
