A video capturing a tense moment at Delhi’s Constitution Club has gone viral, showing popular actor and Samajwadi Party MP Jaya Bachchan pushing away a man who attempted to take a selfie with her. As the man approached, Bachchan was seen physically pushing him back and saying, “Kya kar rahe hai aap? What is this?”

The incident, which quickly made rounds on social media, took place in the presence of fellow parliamentarian Priyanka Chaturvedi, who was standing nearby. She glanced around as the event happened, then proceeded into the club.
This public outbreak isn’t Bachchan’s first. Just days before, she gained attention in the Rajya Sabha during a heated debate on “Operation Sindoor.” She rebuked members of the treasury bench for interrupting her speech, declaring, “Either you speak or I will speak. When a woman speaks, I never interrupt. So please mind your tongue.”.
The selfie shove has sparked a wave of online reactions. Many users criticized the senior politician’s reaction as overly curt and “rude,” especially given the public setting at a distinguished venue. Others, however, defended her asserting that public figures deserve personal space and that not all interactions should be why welcomed, regardless of social media pressures.
As the footage continues to spark debate, it reflects the broader tension between celebrity, privacy, and the expectations of public decorum in the digital era.
