During the promotional event, Dharna was seen posing alongside Madhuri and Triptii while photographers captured the trio together. After filming them for a few moments, some paparazzi reportedly requested separate frames featuring only Madhuri and Triptii.

The request was not directed at Dharna personally. Instead, photographers asked Madhuri whether they could click pictures of just her and Triptii together. As the cameras continued rolling, Madhuri did not respond, and Dharna quietly stepped aside from the frame.

Social Media Users Defend Dharna Durga

Several viewers felt Dharna, who enjoys a massive digital following ahead of her Bollywood debut, deserved equal respect during the event.

One user wrote, “Dharna is literally the 3rd lead of this project. Media learn to respect ‘every’ artist”.

Another commented, “Little do they know there would be tonnes of people who’d only watch the movie because of Dharna!”.

A different user criticised the actors’ response to the situation and wrote, “Didn't like how Madhuri and tripti didn't take her stand!”.

Another reaction read, “Lost little respect for Madhuri Dixit Nene. She could have handled it better.”

One more user added, The "leads" could have taken a stand!”

Another comment that gained attention stated, “Yk it is very bad that madhuri and tripti didn't do anything. If paps are asking dharna to move it clearly means they want the "actors" By profession to click photos.. Which is offending.”
