Shakti Kapoor taunts media at an event







Shakti Kapoor taunts media at an event

Shakti Kapoor it seems hasn't yet forgotten the sting operation fiasco he was involved in few years back. He seems to be still nursing a grudge against the electronic media for the same. Or else what would explain his media taunting behaviour at a recent event.

Shakti was invited as a guest for a private album music launch at a suburban Mumbai open air lounge bar recently. We were witness to his histrionics there.

He arrived quiet late at the party when the event had already begun, so naturally there were lots of media – both electronic as well as print present and so also the invited guests. So when Shakti came on stage before saying anything else he began by stating, "There is so much media here that while coming from entry gate to the stage through the crowd, I felt as I if I was going through a jam packed local train. Now that I have arrived on stage it seems like I have traveled from Virar to Churchgate in a Mumbai local."

He continued, "Nowadays there are too many electronic media people present at events with their cameras, presenters and camera crews. I wonder why so many media people come for private album music launches and why are they missing at film events."

Now by that time since the cocktails had begun to be served to present guests, Shakti went on to taunt, "Mediawalo achchi piyo ya kharaab piyo magar jab bhi piyo fokat ki sharaab piyo."

Well after saying that along with the mandatory congratulatory messages for the music launch people he headed straight to the bar.

Well Shakti you are hardly written or shown about doing anything good in the media so it is better to keep your mouth shut instead of going hammer and tongs at the media and inviting their more ire.
