If you’ve been following Mumbai Police’s Twitter handle, you’d already know they’re a pro at not only utilizing the medium for the best of their job, but also throwing massive sarcastic jibes at law-breakers, every now and then. When they decide to call you out for a misconduct, it wouldn’t mater if you’re a common man or a Bollywood A-listers.
So, when Varun Dhawan had the nerve to post a shot of himself, while taking a selfie with a fan, half-plunging out of his car in the middle of a busy road – he may not have thought he’d be under the wrath of Mumbai Police.
In pictures published in an article on Mid-Day, the ‘Judwa’ actor was seen sliding out of his car’s window in order to take a selfie with an overzealous fan.
Taking a snapshot of the images, here is what Mumbai Police said to Varun in their super-sassy remark:
“These adventures surely work on D silver screen but certainly not on the roads of Mumbai! U have risked ur life,ur admirer’s & few others. V expect better from a responsible Mumbaikar & youth icon like U! An E-Challan is on d way 2 ur home. Next time, V will B harsher”
Just when you thought, that would be the end of it – Varun replied to the Police’s Twitter handle with an apology, which was met with another sass-filled Tweet.
Here is how Varun apologized:
My apologies 🙏 Our cars weren’t moving since we were at a traffic signal and I didn’t want to hurt the sentiment of a fan but next time I’ll keep safety in mind and won’t encourage this. https://t.co/MEJk56EksG— Varun Dhawan (@Varun_dvn) November 23, 2017
“My apologies 🙏 Our cars weren’t moving since we were at a traffic signal and I didn’t want to hurt the sentiment of a fan but next time I’ll keep safety in mind and won’t encourage this,” he wrote.
And this is what Mumbai Police had to say:
Quite a galactic coincidence for the photographer to be on the same signal to capture your gesture, in a good intent nevertheless risky. Leaning out even in a stationary vehicle can be distracting for others considering your popularity. Glad you took our message in d right spirit https://t.co/jKqosfH6V3— Mumbai Police (@MumbaiPolice) November 23, 2017
Whoever manages their Twitter handle deserves a major raise right now!
