As the coronavirus outbreak continues to spread, Bollywood star Arjun Kapoor has requested paparazzi to be "sensitive and sensible." The actor has penned a lengthy note on his Instagram story, wherein he said that paps should not be taking the severity of coronavirus lightly, and "stay home" instead.
He went on to narrate that he stepped out of the house for his routine ultra sound when a bunch of photographers saw him and started clicking his pictures. "I love my job and am okay with the attention media gives but genuinely I don't believe now is the time for us to be normal and just pose of images getting in and out of trying to maintain a sane life.
"Short term distance is better for a long term proximity that everyone enjoys," he further wrote, before adding, "Stay healthy and stay home."
In one of the videos, shared on Instagram, a visibly concerned Arjun Kapoor could be seen urging the paparazzi to go back home and rest.
The actor also shared an Instagram story of him posing for the camera and giving us a sneak peek into his shelf filled with Blu-ray DVDs. He captioned the story as: “That Blu ray cabinet is gonna be (going to be) a lifesaver these next 2 weeks.”
