You have to pay the price of stardom one time or the other. But it’s sad for Sonakshi Sinha that she had to experience the ugly side of being a public figure early on in her career. The leading lady of the blockbuster Salman Khan starrer ‘Dabangg’ was manhandled by some miscreants at Gandhi Garden in South Mumbai. The actress was there on an occasion organized by NGOs to commemorate the 26/11 shootouts in Mumbai. Sonakshi was seated at the event for an hour without any problems whatsoever. It was only after she got up to leave when the incident happened.
As Sonakshi started walking towards the exit, some young men followed her. They shouted out to her saying, “Idhar dekho na, humse baat karo na!” Her bouncers immediately whisked her away to the safety of her car. But they were not quick enough in their reaction. Sonakshi was all tears after the incident. Some of them touched her arms and shoulders in the ruckus. Eye witnesses at the event said that it happened around 5.30pm. Most of the people following her were her fans. It was only a handful of them who were the mischief makers. They are the ones who got too close for comfort.
Her entourage, including her manager, has expressed disgust at the incident. They were shocked that something like this could happen at an event where the police were posted in generous numbers. Sonakshi could not be contacted for a byte, but this what her manager had to say about the ugly scene: “The mob’s behaviour was simply unacceptable. They created a big ruckus, completely disrespecting the speakers on stage. They even fell over and hit each other.” We’d like to know what Salman Khan has to say about this! Remember how he was guarding her fiercely during the promotional tours of ‘Dabangg’?
