Preity Zinta opens up on getting harassed! Arjun, Priyanka, Malaika & others come in support

Several celebrities, including Priyanka Chopra, Hrithik Roshan, Arjun Rampal, and Malaika Arora, commented on Preity Zinta's most recent post. Preity recounted on Instagram on Saturday how a stranger attempted to take a photo of her daughter Gia. Next to Gia's mouth, she "placed a big wet kiss." In addition, Preity described how a "handicapped man kept trying to halt" her in order to extort money. 

On Instagram, Preity shared a video of a man in a wheelchair following and knocking on her car. She captioned the post, "Two events this week have left me a bit shaken. 1 regarding my daughter Gia-where a woman tried to take her photo. When we politely asked her not to she walked away, then suddenly scooped my daughter in her arms & planted a big wet kiss next to her mouth & ran off saying what a cute baby. This woman lives in an elite building & happened to be in the garden where my kids were playing. If I wasn’t a celebrity I probably would have reacted badly but kept my cool as I didn’t want to make a scene."

In her post, Preity Zinta also added, "Most importantly my children are not part of a package deal and are not meant to be preyed on so please leave my kids alone and don't come to them for photos or touch/grab them. They are infants and need to be treated like infants, not celebrities." 

Reacting to the post, Hrithik Roshan commented, "(Red heart emoji) Well done Pree." Arjun Rampal said, "Next time give me a call will sort them out (red heart emoji)." Malaika Arora wrote, "You said it out loud and clear (person raising both hands in celebration emoji)."

Priyanka Chopra posted a person raising both hands in celebration, face with open mouth, and clapping hands emojis. Lilly Singh's comment read, "Good on you for standing up for yourself. I know that can be hard. But it’s important and true."
