Actor Varun Dhawan of Judwaa 2 and Badlapur fame recently received a stinker from the Mumbai Police for taking a selfie with a fan in open traffic. The young actor was caught on camera leaning out of his car to take a selfie with a female fan who was sitting in an adjoining auto rickshaw. When this picture came to their attention, the Mumbai Police immediately posted it on their official twitter handle tagging the actor and pointing out how Dhawan put his, and his fan's life in danger with this act.
The Mumbai Police rightly pointed out that Varun Dhawan being a youth icon he is expected to be more responsible. The tweet also said that actor will be getting an E-Challan for this traffic offence and if such an act is repeated they will have to take harsher measures.

Apparently, the actor was in his SUV waiting for the green light when he noticed his admirer trying to take a picture of him from the adjoining auto rickshaw. As a courtesy, Varun Dhawan offered to take a selfie with her by leaning out of the window of his vehicle, while the girl did the same from the auto. Within about an hour of the tweet going live, Varun Dhawan also took to twitter replying to the tweet, apologising for his actions. He also justified that the vehicles were stationary and also that he did not want to hurt the sentiment of a fan. The actor also said that next time he will keep road safety in mind and won't encourage such acts.
My apologies
