In a nation as obsessed with its film personalities as ours, the idea of personal space isn’t as commonly understood as you’d think, especially when it’s a woman in question.

Vidya Balan who is known to have a friendly rapport with her fans lost her cool recently and for some very legit reasons.

Vidya Balan was at the Kolkata airport with the producer and director of ‘Begum Jaan’, her upcoming film when a fan requested to click a selfie with her.

As most celebrities would, Vidya Balan obliged her fan. According to a report by Spotboye, the moment Vidya Balan agreed to the fan’s demand of clicking a selfie with him, the man put her arm around her without even asking her.

“Don’t”, she said sternly. “Please, don’t do that.” Her manager warned the fan too when he didn’t immediately take his hand off Vidya.

During his second attempt to click a selfie with her, he put her arm around her once again, despite being asked not to, the moment she turned towards the camera.

“What do you think you are doing? This is wrong.” Vidya Balan confronted him but he continued to ask for a selfie.

“No you can’t, behave yourself!” Vidya Balan lashed back at him and walked off.

Later, in a conversation with Spotboye, she said. “When a stranger puts an arm around you, be it a man or a woman you get uncomfortable because they are intruding into your personal space. We are public figures, not public property.”

Well, the fan sure got his lesson. A no is a NO. As simple as that.
