MUMBAI: Vir Das, who is a famous Bollywood actor and standup comedian, recently took to his social media handle and shared an awful encounter that he faced. It so happened that the Go Goa Gone actor, who resides in the ground floor of his building, invited a neighbour over to have some food and he claimed to have followed all the social distancing rules.
An old man, however, was not very happy to see Vir and he started yelling at him, blackmailing him and hurling abuses. Well, things got even worse after the man in the video even sneezed at Vir, especially during such times when the world is battling a pandemic.
In his note, Vir Das gave a detailed explanation of the incident and revealed that the man holds grudges against him because he stays in an apartment that the man wished to own but he couldn’t. Vir also revealed that the man stirred controversy in the past as well, wherein he had involved the media. He wrote, “This is one crazy evening. I live on the ground floor. We've got a little sit out. At 10pm a neighbour came by, because we had cooked dinner for them too. We do that with them and also some others within the complex.
We gave him a chair fifteen feet away, FULLY social distanced. My neighbour had a can of coke from his house, a mask on, which he had pulled down to have a smoke. I was on the outdoor sit area of my house, neighbour was in the complex, fully social distanced. Five minutes later, this happens.
“This man is not my landlord, he lives on the first floor of the annexe building. He is upset because my landlord inherited the house I live in and he didn't. This man does not own my doorstep, my sit-out or my house.
I am not sure if an old man threatening to assault me, or sneezing on me, or asking his dead parent to haunt me qualifies as harassment. But this is a little ridiculous. And before this turns into him going to the media, as he has done before, and I've sat through it quietly...I'm not normally one for drama...I'm sorry but this crossed the line. How's your lockdown going?” added Vir.
Take a look at the video and tweets below:
Lockdown Neighbour. I was giving my friend Kavi who lives three houses down from me some dinner. We were waiting for it to get cooked 15 feet away from each-other. Me on my doorstep, him out. This happened. pic.twitter.com/YKgErSxqBC
