Shehnaaz Gill was recently caught in an awkward moment with the paparazzi and her unhinged response is winning hearts on the internet. Famous for her bubbly nature and warm chemistry with fans and photographers, Shehnaaz had a rare case of irritation at an unexpected meeting outside a building, where she called the paps dheet (stubborn).
Shehnaaz Gill Lashes Out At Paps
The episode occurred when Shehnaaz was standing in front of an elevator waiting and was suddenly caught off guard by a bunch of photographers. Shehnaaz was surprised at first but remained courteous. She asked them to desist from clicking her photos. “Chalo, bas karo bhai,” she asked them to leave her alone. The shutterbugs, however, did not stop shooting.
A security guard who was present attempted to intervene, telling the paps to desist, but Shehnaaz, seemingly exasperated, came back with a zinger that has gone viral: “Nahi. yeh dheet hain, yeh band nahi karenge. Aapko pata nahi hai (No… they’re stubborn, they won’t stop… you don’t know them).” The episode was recorded on camera and went viral in no time on social media sites.
Shehnaaz later spoke about the incident in her Instagram Stories. In a humorous clip, one of her team members asked her why she seemed sad. She responded, “I’m not sad, I just did not know there would be media there. I had a shower at home and came here immediately. Now everyone will get to see what my actual hair is like!”
On the professional front, Shehnaaz continues to expand her filmography. Following her Bollywood debut in Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan (2023), she appeared in Thank You For Coming, which had its world premiere at TIFF. She also appeared in the 2024 music video Sajna Ve Sajna by Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video.
