Anushka Sharma was brutally trolled on social media after she was spotted seated behind her bodyguard on a bike with both of them not wearing a helmet. This happened, hours after Amitabh Bachchan was spotted traveling to work on bike with a stranger without a helmet. In both scenarios, neither of them or their riders were wearing helmets. After receiving complaints from social media users, Mumbai Police initiated action against the duo.
On Monday afternoon, Anushka ditched her car and took a bike ride after a tree fell on the road, blocking her way. As the video went viral, Anushka was criticised badly. A user wrote, “What about helmets dude?" Another said, "Na madam ne helmet pehena hai na uske bodyguard ne." A few also tagged the Mumbai Police, urging them to take necessary action. In reply, Mumbai Police informed that the traffic police have been informed about the same. Their comment read, “We have shared this with traffic branch.”
