Urfi Javed, who is otherwise known for her pap appearances, avoided posing for the shutterbugs on Thursday. The actress was caught by the paparazzi when she visited a restaurant in Mumbai. In a video that surfaced on social media, Urfi was seen walking towards the food outlet when paparazzi called her up. However, the social media sensation did not stop and avoided posing for the cameras.
Notably, this comes a day after Urfi alleged that she was ‘harassed’ by a 15-year-old boy in Mumbai while she was being photographed, in front of her family. “Yesterday something extremely uncomfortable happened with me and my family, a group of guys were passing by while I was getting papped, a guy shouted at me ‘What’s your body count’ in front of everyone. The boy was hardly 15 years old. He did that in front of my mother and my family!” Urfi wrote on her Instagram stories.
However, this was not the first time that Urfi Javed faced such a situation. The actress often faces backlash for her sartorial choices. In December 2022, a man in Mumbai was also arrested for allegedly sending rape and life threats to television actress Urfi Javed. He was identified as Naveen Giri and was booked under sections 354(A) (sexual harassment), 354(D) (stalking), 509, 506 (criminal intimidation) of the Indian Penal Code and IT Act.
Previously, in an interview, Urfi lashed out at those filing complaints against her and mentioned that she feels unsafe. However, she also defended her choice of outfits and admitted that she is ‘doing it for attention’. “This industry is all about getting popularity and getting attention, so what is wrong with it then?” she told E-Times.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Urfi Javed’s Follow Kar Lo Yaar was recently released on Prime Video. The nine-episode series is produced by Sol Productions’ Fazila Allana and Kamna Menezes and directed by Sandeep Kukreja. It has been described as “an unfiltered and immersive viewpoint into the vibrant and captivating life of Javed, India’s biggest viral sensation”.
