Jasprit Bumrah Rebukes Paparazzi at Mumbai Airport in Viral Video

The exchange highlighted the strain between player privacy and airport paparazzi culture.

Overview

  • Bumrah was filmed telling photographers, “Maine bulaya hi nahi” and “Tum kisi aur ke liye aaye ho,” as they crowded him outside the Mumbai airport.
  • One photographer called him their “Diwali bonus,” after which Bumrah asked to be allowed to reach his car, saying, “Arey bhai, meri gaadi ke paas jaane do mujhe.”
  • The clip was posted on Instagram by Gaikwad Ganesh and quickly spread across Indian media outlets.
  • Reports described the reaction as uncharacteristic for the usually composed fast bowler, with no disciplinary action reported.
  • Bumrah returned home after a 2-0 Test win over West Indies, is rested for the Australia ODIs, and is expected to rejoin India for the T20I series starting October 29.
