Another Actress Harassed by Crowd as Video Goes Viral
Mumbai: A video showing Indian actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu being harassed by an unruly crowd during a public event has gone viral on social media, sparking widespread criticism over the behavior of fans toward celebrities.
Incidents of fans misbehaving with artists are not new in India, but in recent days, repeated cases of actors—especially actresses—being surrounded by aggressive crowds have raised serious safety concerns.
Just a few days ago, actress Nidhhi Agerwal was surrounded by fans while heading towards her car after attending an event. During the incident, it became extremely difficult for her to move even a few steps. Her security guards, however, acted promptly and managed to escort her safely to the vehicle.

A similar incident has now come to light involving Samantha Ruth Prabhu. According to reports, the actress was attending the opening ceremony of an outlet in Hyderabad. While leaving the venue, she was surrounded by fans and faced harassment, though her security team eventually succeeded in taking her safely to her car.
Following the viral video, social media users strongly condemned the behavior of the crowd. Many questioned why fans fail to understand that actors are also human beings and why they do not respect personal boundaries.
Such incidents have frequently occurred with Indian celebrities, particularly at airports and public events, where fans rush to take selfies or demand autographs, often putting the safety of artists at risk.
