Jaya Bachchan is infamous for her short temper. At Manoj Kumar’s prayer meet on Sunday, the film veteran got irritated at an elderly fan, asking for a picture. The video is doing the rounds on social media.
In the video, Jaya Bachchan is seen talking to a group of women. Meanwhile, an elderly woman taps on Jaya Bachchan’s shoulder, leaving her in surprise. When Jaya Bcahchan turns back, a man – likely accompanying the elderly woman – tries to capture the two on his camera-phone. When the woman extends her hand to handshake, Jaya Bachchan pushes the woman’s hand aside and calls out the man for clicking photo on such occasion.
Jaya Bachchan’s reaction has sparked mixed reactions online. While some criticised her behaviour as rude, others stood by her and said that it was an inappropriate occasion to ask for photos.
One user commented, “I don’t think she was trying to meet but was trying to click a photo with Jaya. Funeral isn’t the right place to click pics. Jaya can also talk politely.” Another fan wrote, “I’m sorry but why on earth would you think that a funeral is an appropriate place to ask for photos?” Another fan wrote, “People trying to click pics in prayer meet should be kicked out. This time, Jaya is right.”
