Chaos erupts at Housefull 5 promo event
On Sunday, Akshay along with Nana Patekar, Jacqueline, Sonam Bajwa, Nargis Fakhri, Soundarya Sharma, and Fardeen Khan, went to Pune to promote their upcoming film Housefull 5.
The fan event quickly turned chaotic as soon as the stars stepped into the mall where the event was happening, with Akshay himself stepping in to restore order and calm the frenzied crowd.
The mall was overflowing with fans, with every nook and cranny packed, from the event zone to the upper floors and corridors. Several videos showed young girls and women in tears, while those at the back pushed and shoved to get a glimpse of the stars.
Analysing the situation, Akshay quickly took the mic, appealing to the crowd to exercise caution and avoid any mishaps, ensuring everyone’s safety.
“Dhakka dhukki mat kariye, please. Haath jod ke vinanti karta hoon, yaha auratein hai, bacche hai…I request everyone, please (Please don’t push anyone. There are women and kids in the front),” Akshay said with folded hands. The rest of the cast also looked tense due to the crowd situation.
After the crowd calmed down, the Housefull 5 team proceeded with the event, which eventually wrapped up as per schedule. Akshay, Nana, Jacqueline, Sonam, and others were seen dancing at the event.
