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
Both outlets report the same incident in neutral, straight-news style, differing only in detail. Hindustan Times leads with Farah's interaction and also covers Salman's subsequent amicable photo session with paparazzi, framing the story as a continuing conversation. ABP Live adds context by including past objections by Manushi Chhillar and Neha Dhupia and embeds a supportive social media post, framing the story as a broader shift in celebrity-paparazzi norms. Neither outlet adopts a critical or partisan stance. The uniform coverage suggests that the boundaries of celebrity photography remain a consensus news topic, with the next public reaction from a celebrity or photographer likely to sustain the discussion.
