Video: 'Itna direction mat dijiye', says Jaya Bachchan to paps at Hema Malini's 75th birthday bash

Bollywood actress Jaya Bachchan is well-known for her outbursts towards the paparazzi. She snapped again during Hema Malini's 75th birthday party when paparazzi urged her to stare into their cameras.

If you're familiar with Jaya Bachchan, you're probably aware that she has a poor tolerance for photographers. She has no qualms about 'disciplining' them. Jaya is known to have a short fuse, and the paparazzi are frequently on the receiving end of her rage. Previously, she had a history of yelling at individuals who attempted to photograph her. On October 16, at Hema Malini's 75th birthday party, the actress-politician became irritated when paparazzi requested her to gaze into their cameras.

In a now-viral video, as Jaya walked on the platform created for pictures, she also told the cameramen, “Ye Padmini mujhe yahan lekar aayi hai…(Padmini has brought me here)”. Later as the paparazzi told her to look in their directions, she smiled and said, “Abhi aap log itna direction mat dijiye (Don’t give me so many directions).” Jaya’s smile and pleasant mood received a warm welcome from the paparazzi.

Social media users had mixed reactions to Jaya’s reaction. A follower wrote, “She looks beautiful wen she smiles shes not a bad person may b she doesn’t personally like shouting very respectfully she present herself.”, another one wrote, “The shuush never failed”. A fan also called her “cute” seeing her in a good mood.
