During a store launch event in Hyderabad, actress Kajal Aggarwal looked visibly uncomfortable when a man inappropriately touched her while attempting to take a selfie. The video of the same went viral on the Internet in no time. The clip shows Kajal signalling for the man to step away from her after he approaches her for a selfie.
Despite the uncomfortable situation, Kajal proceeded with the event, responding to questions from attendees. Regrettably, this is not the only incident, as female actors like Sara Ali Khan, Aparna Balamurali, and Aahana Kumar have also faced inappropriate touching at events in the last few months.

This incident parallels a recent occurrence involving Bollywood actress Vidya Balan. Following her attendance at the final rites of the late Padma Shri singer Pankaj Udas, Vidya Balan encountered a fan who insisted on taking a selfie with her. The actress, visibly uneasy, attempted to ignore the fan’s requests, but he persisted in pursuing her for a selfie, capturing the entire incident on cameras.
Kajal Aggarwal recently resumed work after a hiatus from the film industry to welcome her baby boy, Neil, with her husband Gautam in 2022. She is slated to appear in the Telugu film “Satyabhama,” portraying the role of a police officer, and the Tamil film “Indian 2.”
