Farah Khan asks paparazzi not to click her from behind, cites Salman
The Story in Brief
Filmmaker Farah Khan confronted paparazzi in Mumbai on Wednesday, 30 September, and asked them not to photograph her from behind, citing Salman Khan's recent comments on Bigg Boss 20. She told the photographers, 'Salman bhai ne bola na peeche se nahi lene ka, turn karo, turn karo'. The incident comes days after Salman criticised intrusive photography of women on the reality show.
Salman Khan had objected to photographers taking 'back shots' of female celebrities, mentioning Saiee Manjrekar, Neha Dhupia and his niece as examples. He called the practice 'disgusting' and urged women to respond firmly. Hindustan Times reports that Salman later posed for photographers at a recording studio on Tuesday, 29 September, and they thanked him. ABP Live notes that Manushi Chhillar and Neha Dhupia have also publicly objected to such photographs.
Farah's intervention adds a new voice to the growing discussion on boundaries in celebrity photography.
Indian Opinion Analysis
All three outlets report the same event and quotes. Hindustan Times and Times of India both lead with Farah's confrontation and Salman's earlier remarks, while ABP Live also includes a reader poll and social media reaction. The coverage is uniform straight reporting: no outlet takes a side or adds opinion. The story simply documents another celebrity using Salman's platform to enforce boundaries, with no official or political dimension. The next development to watch is whether photographers change their behaviour, as Salman claimed on the show.
