Sonam, Dulquer fight with Mumbai Police over a video

Last Updated 15 December 2018, 02:51 IST

Bollywood actor Sonam Kapoor Ahuja and south star Dulquer Salmaan fought with Mumbai police in small twitter row Friday after the cops, wrongly, criticised the actor's co-star Dulquer Salmaan for "trying stunt while driving".

Sonam had posted a video clip from a film shoot on Twitter showing Salmaan in the driver's seat of a car. His hands are seen fiddling with a mobile phone as the car seems to be moving.

Sonam is heard calling him "weirdo"

Mumbai Police posted the clip on their Twitter handle and wrote, "We agree with you @sonamakapoor ! Quite a `weirdo' to try such stunts while driving and putting the lives of fellow drivers at risk too! We don't quite approve of these even in `reel' life.

This drew much flak for the actors from twitterati.

Sonam then stepped in to clarify that Salmaan was not actually driving the car.

"We weren't driving we were rigged on a truck... but I'm glad you guys are concerned," she tweeted.

"I hope and I know you show the same interest in regular folk as well! Thanks for taking care! #Reelvsreal," she added tagging her co-star.

The police responded by saying, "For us, No Mumbaikar is `regular' they are all `special'! And we are equally concerned about them all. Glad to know your safety wasn't `rigged."

Dulquer Salmaan also clarified that it was not a stunt. "Would appreciate it if you had checked some facts before tweeting this. In fact @MumbaiPolice helped us with permissions and traffic management during the shoot and were present the whole time," he tweeted.

"We appreciate that you weren't indulging in any irresponsible violation. A good example for all your fans @dulQuer," police replied.
