Jaya Bachchan, who is known for her no-nonsense attitude towards the paparazzi, lost her cool at the premiere of Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani in Mumbai. To attend the screening, she arrived with her son Abhishek Bachchan and Shweta Bachchan. A video of the incident shows Jaya came down heavily on the photographers for shouting her name.
The veteran actress opted to skip the red carpet but was seen waiting for her children to join her when the paparazzi began calling out her name and requested her to pose. Irked by their shouting, Jaya shut them down and said, "I am not deaf. Chilao maat, aaram se baat karo (Don’t shout, talk softly)." She was soon joined by Shweta and Abhishek and the trio made their way to the screening. For the event, Jaya looked elegant in a stunning red ethnic outfit.
Soon after the video went viral on social media and many started trolling Jaya Bachchan saying, "Soch ke haal bura hota hai.. Amitabh ji ka kya haal hota hoga ghar par", Another user said, "She is so arrogant, should learn some manners from Big B". A third comment read, "She is behaving like a school principal."
