Actor Jaya Bachchan physically confronts an individual attempting a selfie with her.
Veteran Actress Jaya Bachchan Loses Her Cool in Selfie Incident
In an unexpected turn of events, veteran actress and Samajwadi Party MP Jaya Bachchan found herself in the limelight once again, this time for an incident at the Constitution Club in Delhi on August 11, 2025. A viral video shows Jaya visibly agitated, asking "Kya kar rahe ho aap?" ("What are you doing?") before physically pushing a man who attempted to take a selfie with her without permission[1][2][3].
The incident sparked mixed reactions on social media. Some users criticized her for what they perceived as arrogance and elitist behavior, while others supported her right to privacy. Actress and MP Kangana Ranaut slammed Jaya as “the most spoilt and privileged woman,” attributing public tolerance of her tantrums to her being Amitabh Bachchan’s wife[4]. Several netizens mocked her reaction, with comments ranging from calls for therapy to comparisons with her husband's well-known temperament[3].
This incident is not the first time Jaya Bachchan has shown her displeasure with intrusive media attention. In a podcast, she revealed her disdain for people invading her personal life by taking unsolicited photos[4]. Her no-nonsense attitude towards paparazzi and fans taking unauthorized pictures adds context to her reaction in the viral video.
It's worth noting that this is not the first time Jaya Bachchan has lost her temper in a public setting. Previously, she has scolded fellow MPs and expressed strong displeasure in parliamentary settings[1].
In a separate incident last year, Jaya Bachchan objected to being addressed as "Shrimati Jaya Amitabh Bachchan" by Deputy Chairman Harivansh Narayan Singh in the Rajya Sabha[5][6]. A video from the Rajya Sabha went viral where Jaya pointed out that she could have been called just "Jaya Bachchan" instead of including her husband's name[5].
