New Delhi: The recent interview with paparazzi Viral Bhayani has spilled the beans on the insights of crazy popular weddings in B’town as well as other secrets of the industry that entertainment enthusiasts are always hyped to know about.
The most ‘viral’ paparazzo also revealed astonishing work culture inside show biz journalism. Bhayani surprisingly called the much celebrated and widely covered Bollywood wedding event of actors Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor ‘scary’. The journo further said that Vicky Kaushal and Katrina Kaif, who recently got married at a royal event in the Ranthambore district of Rajasthan, didn’t do anything for the media.
“Ek reception kar dete toh kya farak padta. Main sponsor karwa deta (There would have been no loss in throwing a reception, I could have sponsored it)”, he added.
Why does the journo think that Alia-Ranbir and Katrina-Vicky should have thrown a reception?
Remembering actor Feroz Khan, and how he threw a grand reception for his son Fardeen Khan, Bhayani said that he latter ensured that all the papps got enough pictures and the same food that the guests were served. “Yaar dil hona chaiye (One must have a big heart)”, he added.
Talking about work culture and pressure in entertainment journalism, Bhayani said, “Three guys were recently hospitalized during covering an industry wedding because of the pressure of work. They don’t get time to relax. We are at war every day. I feel attacked every day. We are always under pressure”.
I fight back when I’m not on the wrong side: Viral Bhayani
Bhayani informed that he single-handedly manages his news covering and his social media. “Actors mostly call me to remove certain things. But even I argue with them. I have my point of view. That is why people don’t like me too much. I would accept my mistake but if there’s no mistake of mine, I will fight back,” he told.
About celebs cheating on their partners
Talking about the responsible reporting, Bhayani said, “Even you’ll feel offended if I click your baby’s picture without your consent. We often catch several married actors cheating on their partners with someone else. But we don’t indulge in it. Now even we understand”.
