Emraan Hashmi has never shied away from taking a stand for his friends and colleagues and this incident has just reaffirmed the fact. On the sets of an upcoming film Azhar in London, co-star  Nargis Fakhri faced an uncomfortable incident. 

While, shooting for a sequence with Emraan Hashmi where several spectators had gathered to see the shoot, there was a person who was constantly trying to click pictures and record videos of Nargis. This made the actress very uncomfortable and upon noticing the same, Emraan went and confronted the individual.

Nargis later remarked saying how she is used to such behaviour on the sets of a film but this was just uncalled for. “When someone constantly records you, you feel conscious. The person cannot be ignored, I tried to signal the man requesting him not to record or shoot me, but he paid no heed. Despite unit assistants also asking him to stop, he kept at it. Then Emraan went up to him, took him aside and gave him a piece of his mind. I don’t know what Emraan said but the man left from there immediately," she said.

On asking Emraan about the incident, the actor had this to say, “I do understand that fans display their love and affection in many ways and I appreciate that. However, this particular gentleman overstepped his boundary. So, I had to intervene and ask him to leave, before we took strict action against him." 

Directed by Tony D’souza, Azhar is based on the life and times of one of India’s most loved cricket captains, Mohammad Azharuddin and chronicles his rise and fall as country’s most controversial sportsman yet.  The film stars Emraan Hashmi, Prachi Desai, Nargis Fakhri and Lara Dutta along with others.

The film is slated to release on May 13, 2016.
