Bollywood luminary Bobby Deol has been basking in the admiration of fans for his remarkable depiction of Abrar Haq in the Sandeep Reddy Vanga-directed film “Animal.” Despite his brief appearance as the mute antagonist, Deol’s performance has left a lasting impression on viewers. Fans have been effusive in their praise, commending not only his acting but also his sartorial choices and action sequences. However, amidst the accolades, Deol recently found himself at the centre of controversy when a video surfaced of him seemingly pushing an enthusiastic fan at the airport.

The footage, shared by entertainment portal Bollywood Shaadis, captures the 54-year-old actor and his team hurriedly navigating through the airport. In the course of their movement, Deol appears to lightly push aside a fan who is holding a phone. The fan appears disoriented after the encounter, prompting criticism from netizens who condemned the actor’s perceived lack of consideration. The incident led to online trolling, with comparisons to his brother Sunny Deol, who has been observed maintaining distance from fans after the success of “Gadar 2.”
Netizens took to the comments section to express their discontent, accusing Deol of arrogance and attributing his behaviour to the success of “Animal,” in which he had a relatively minor role. Some commented on his age and questioned the hype surrounding his character, describing it as undeserved. One remark suggested that success had gone to his head.
