Varun Dhawan ascended the stage at the NMACC Gala and grooved out to his hit songs. A video of the Bhediya actress has gone popular on social media. Varun invites supermodel Gigi Hadid to the stage. While dancing, he not only scooped her up in his arms but also kissed her on the cheek.

Netizens quickly flocked to social media to condemn the actor’s actions. “If you are a woman, you are not safe anyplace with anyone,” one tweet stated. Even if you’re Gigi Hadid, invited to an “exclusive” party, people like Varun Dhawan would spontaneously take you up and kiss you without your consent, all in the name of fun. Disgusting.” “This is so humiliating to see, especially the way she runs, please noo,” commented another. “OMG WTF is this behaviour #VarunDhawan?” commented another. “She wasn’t prepared for this!” “Varun Dhawan whirling Gigi Hadid is the true universe of craziness,” one person commented.

The Jug Jugg Jeeyo star replied to the criticism and eventually cleared the air. “I think today you woke up and decided to be awake,” he wrote. Now let me break your bubble and inform you that her appearance on stage was scheduled, so find a new Twitter cause to scream about rather of getting out and doing anything about it. Hello and good morning.”

As soon as the actor responded to the nasty remarks, several admirers came forward to his defence. ‘Thank you for explaining, I was waiting for you to do this,’ one commented. “VD, we fans have known you for years, we know it was all planned and choreographed,” said another. Haters only want to gain power by utilising your name. Remain the same, we’re always here for you.”
