Maniesh Paul

TV host-turned-actor Maniesh Paul recently met with a scary incident while heading back to Mumbai from Lonavla. The actor was returning to Mumbai from a shoot in Lonavla when on the highway around 20 bikers started chasing his car. Maniesh didn’t really mind it in the beginning but things took a nasty turn when they started banging his car window.

A source close to a leading web portal says, “Initially, he was okay with it as they were just shouting his name, but all hell broke loose when they started banging the window glass of his car as they wanted him to get down and click pictures with them. But seeing their rowdy behaviour, Maniesh just waved at them and zoomed away in his car.”

Maniesh was scared to say the least because this was the first time that he had met with such an incident. Here’s what he said, “It was midnight and these 20 bikes with three guys riding on each one chased me. Half of them looked a little drunk. Their bikes were so close to the car, that my driver had a tough time manoeuvring the vehicle. If I speeded up they would also increase the speed, I had to take care that they don’t end up falling and getting hurt. So, I told my driver to go slowly. This is the first time I faced something like this and it was scary.”

Such incidents do occur and it’s saddening how our celebs are subjected to such kind of scary things. Someone has rightly said, “It’s not easy being a public figure”!
