Filmmaker Karan Johar also condemned the media frenzy, calling the gathering a “circus” and labeling the relentless coverage as “disrespectful” towards the veteran actor. He posted on his Instagram Story:
“When basic courtesy and sensitivity leaves our hearts and our actions we know we are a doomed race. PLEASE leave a family alone!!!!… It’s heartbreaking to see a paparazzi and media circus for a living legend who has contributed so massively to our cinema… this is not coverage it’s DISRESPECT.”
