Actor Sidharth Malhotra was visibly upset with paparazzi for crowding around wife Kiara Advani post hospital visit, urges media to respect their privacy.
Mumbai — Bollywood star Sidharth Malhotra, known for his usually calm and media-friendly demeanor, displayed a rare moment of anger today when paparazzi aggressively tried to capture photographs of his pregnant wife, Kiara Advani, as she exited a hospital in Mumbai.
The incident took place shortly after the couple, who are expecting their first child, visited a medical facility. In a video that has since gone viral on social media, Sidharth is seen walking Kiara to their car before firmly asking the gathered photographers to back off. “You guys start behaving now. One second, get back, get back! Behave yourself yaar. You want me to get angry now? One second, boss!” the visibly upset actor said as he tried to manage the crowd surrounding their vehicle.
The actor’s reaction comes just months after Sidharth and Kiara shared the joyful news of their pregnancy with fans on February 28. The couple, who tied the knot in February 2023, made the announcement with a heartwarming Instagram post that showed their hands holding a tiny pair of white baby booties, captioned: “The greatest gift of our lives👼 Coming soon ❤️🧿🙏🏻.”
Fans and netizens quickly rallied behind the actor, defending his outburst and calling out the media’s lack of sensitivity. Many social media users emphasized the importance of respecting celebrities’ privacy, especially during such intimate and vulnerable moments. One user commented, “Respect their privacy, and maintain some boundary man,” while another wrote, “Very rightly so! They’re literally outside a clinic, and she looks tired and exhausted. Have some manners.”
Another supporter added, “So justified yaar, like stop infiltrating their privacy… you guys need to maintain some boundaries!!!” The general sentiment on social platforms leaned heavily in favor of the couple’s need for space and dignity amid the excitement surrounding their upcoming parenthood.
As the Bollywood fraternity and fans await the arrival of their first child, it’s clear that Sidharth Malhotra is not just a doting husband but also a fiercely protective one, ready to step up when it comes to shielding his family from unnecessary public scrutiny.
