More garbage came out of your mouth: Arhhan Singh criticises Anushka Sharma

Actor Anushka Sharma and cricketer Virat Kohli pulled out a man who littered on the road. Kohli recorded Anushka schooling the man and posted it on social media. 

In the video, Sharma saw a person throwing a piece of plastic from his car and schooled him for littering on the road.

Saw these people throwing garbage on the road & pulled them up rightfully. Travelling in a luxury car and brains gone for a toss. These people will keep our country clean? Yeah right! If you see something wrong happening like this, do the same & spread awareness. @AnushkaSharma pic.twitter.com/p8flrmcnba

After the video went viral, the duo were praised for their civic awareness but at the same time, they were trolled and criticised for shaming the man publicly. 

Along with others, the man - Arhhan Singh - who was at the receiving end, put up a post against Anushka Sharma on Facebook criticising her for her action.

 

Singh’s mother too posted on Instagram, defending her son’s actions and criticising Sharma and Kohli.

@anushkasharma @virat.kohli The last thing we would want is to get publicity out of your cheap STUNT in the name of CLEANLINESS! You both posted a video for your fans n followers by VIOLATING Basic Rights to privacy &you shamed my son in the video as well in your post content you both may be who you are in your fields, with millions of followers & all the PR backing you... you may be payed for your campaigning or maybe doing it for sheer publicity As a mother,I would like to state that you have not only shamed my son @arhhansingh on social media by not blurring his face, but youve also exposed him to unwanted hostility.... and danger from fanatics for such a small thing that you claim he has done but have no proof of anyways ? I am concerned about my sons SAFTEY !!! how dare you crush somebody’s image/and morale and reputation and expose him to public hate, a boy who is on the verge of starting his ventures, ..just to prove what good citizens you both are to increase your fan following ?How dare you?? If you both really cared or bothered about cleanliness , then you would actively do something about all the garbage in your own lane.. you would make a noise and use your VOICE to urge the municipal authorities to take action atleast in the lane where you live,to start with, which you haven’t . Posting videos of fake bravado just to fool your followers. If your intention was genuine then you would pull over and politely correct the person for littering IF THEY DID in a decent and real manner... and not by displaying such a rude and arrogant attitude, and then posting it for the world to see! You have caused a lot of grief with your post & this is morally and humanitarianly very wrong. You may be #AnushkaSharma or #viraatkohli in your house or on screen & the field...but on the streets you are just a citizen trying to correct another... DO IT WITH KINDNESS ....fear karma . And just FYI , he did not react badly, not coz of who you both are.. we couldnt care less,but only because he has a decent upbringing ! Unlike people like you, who seem to think that you are the empowered ones to talk and treat people as you wish !

Meanwhile, the Union Minister of State for Home Kiren Rijiju has come out in defence of 'Virushka' adding that the couple does not need any publicity.

C'mon, Virat & Anushka need publicity!! They would rather crave for privacy!! Our conduct reflects our mentality. Civic sense is social ethics and ethical behaviour doesn't come with wealth & education. Let's keep India clean. #SwachhBharat

 Social media users had a mixed response to the video. Some supported the duo’s act while some called it a "publicity stunt".

#AnushkaSharma has executed her cleanliness battle in the wrong way. I feel for the guy in the car.Yes he was wrong to throw litter but placing the footage on social media is wrong. Imagine how it'll affect him?Simply talking to him politely without any video would've been better

I applaud #anushkasharma for taking efforts to do something when she noticed someone was doing something wrong. She could have just drove away but she didn't. It makes me sad that some mindless people can find some negativity in this as well.

If someone is giving an important message to the society then let's troll her.
We live in amazing times! #AnushkaSharma
