Mumbai’s paparazzi work tirelessly to capture moments that define Bollywood’s biggest stories. A photographer recently shared two incidents that highlight the real challenges they face while covering celebrities.
During Ananya Panday’s questioning at the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) in connection with Aryan Khan’s case, a photographer was capturing footage as she left the office. However, he couldn’t get a clear shot. In an attempt to position himself better, he moved in front of her car.
He told Jist in an interview that before he could adjust his camera, a bouncer pushed him, causing him to fall. The impact was so intense that his head could have hit the ground dangerously. Luckily, he managed to protect himself, but the risk involved was real.
He further revealed that after the firing incident outside Salman Khan’s residence, fans and media eagerly awaited his first public appearance. When the actor finally stepped out, chaos erupted among photographers trying to capture the moment.
As the paparazzi gathered, the police intervened to manage the crowd. In the commotion, an officer struck the photographer and another member of the media with a stick. Despite the pain, they remained focused on covering Salman’s exit, ensuring that the moment wasn’t missed.
