'Actress' job': Chinmayi backs Samantha's team after chaotic fan incident
Singer Chinmayi Sripada spoke up for Samantha Ruth Prabhu's team after they shielded her from a chaotic crowd at a Hyderabad store launch on Sunday evening.
Videos showed Samantha struggling to reach her car as fans and paparazzi broke through the human barricade.
"He must have gotten multiple bruises at least"
Chinmayi shared the viral clips on X, saying, "The actress' team, including her team member Arya, is literally safeguarding her with his entire person. He must have been left with several bruises at the very least."
She added, "Controlling a mob of humans who don't know basic civil behavior is not an actress' job."
Despite the chaos, Samantha stayed calm and smiled as security helped her out.
Fans call out organizers for poor planning
Many online slammed the event organizers for weak crowd control and not setting boundaries for fans—a problem celebs face way too often.
Just days earlier, actor Nidhhi Agerwal was also mobbed at another event, leading police to file a case against those organizers too.
