'Paps shouldn't do it': Sunita Ahuja backs Jaya Bachchan after paparazzi comments
Sunita Ahuja, wife of filmmaker David Dhawan, spoke up for Jaya Bachchan after the actor's recent remarks about paparazzi went viral.
In a vlog Q&A, Sunita said, "Look, everyone has their own thoughts and thinking. Jaya ma'am must be getting irritated. I can't say anything about her. She is a very big. She must not like it. So, if she doesn't like it, then paps shouldn't do it," expressing understanding for Bachchan's stance.
