Lucas, 73, began arguing with the crowd on Friday while suggesting them that they should choose an honest approach for a living, instead of selling his autographs for $200 (Rs 13,000) apiece.

“You know why I have money and you don’t? Instead of spending time doing autographs, I spend my time making movies,” Lucas said in a video, reports tmz.com.

When one of the autograph seekers replied he couldn’t make movies, Lucas became upset at the notion.

“I started out just like you. I had nothing when I started,” Lucas said.
