“I Was Surprised to Be Recognized by a Group of Young Men”, Zeenat Aman

Veteran actor Zeenat Aman shared that she had had the flu “with flaring rosacea and the flu” and wanted to lay in bed for the weekend, but due to some scheduled work commitments, she couldn’t do so. In her latest post, Zeenat wrote a lengthy caption to express her concern after being spotted by fans while returning from Alibag, who wanted to click a picture with her.

She began: “I was surprised to be recognised on the ferry back from Alibag the other evening. I had thought my age, sunglasses, and mask would keep me incognito. Yet a group of young men approached me on the deck and requested a picture, which I politely declined. As mentioned in my last post, I was just about recovering from the flu and had endured a tedious day of bureaucracy. Neither of which left me in the mood to socialise or pose.

I was sorry to disappoint these lovely fans, but there are boundaries that I find important to draw for myself. I am happy they respected my response, as it’s not always the case.”

On the work front, Zeenat Aman recently joined Instagram and has been sharing snippets from her personal life and interacting with her fans. She also signed her first OTT production with the web series Showstopper, which will be directed by Manish Harishankar.
