A video featuring actress Sreeleela is currently making waves on social media. Shot during the Darjeeling schedule of Anurag Basu’s upcoming film, the clip shows the actress being suddenly pulled into a crowd while walking alongside co-star Kartik Aaryan.

In the now-viral video, Kartik and Sreeleela are seen navigating a packed street when a man from the crowd grabs the actress unexpectedly. Kartik, who was walking a little ahead, seemed unaware of what had just happened. Moments later, he turned around to notice Sreeleela missing. The actress looked visibly shaken and was seen using her arm to protect herself.

Internet reacts strongly

The clip has divided social media. While some people speculated that the incident might have been part of the film’s shoot, many others were quick to condemn the behaviour.

One Instagram user wrote, "Punish those who pulled Sreeleela."

Another said, "This is pathetic behaviour by the crowd, poor Sreeleela is completely in shock here, hope people learn to behave in the future."

A comment read "Even Kartik Aaryan needs protection in this kind of a crowd."

Kartik Aaryan and Sreeleela are currently shooting for Anurag Basu’s next directorial, which has taken them to some stunning locations across Gangtok and Darjeeling. Although the film is yet to be officially titled, there were earlier rumours suggesting it could be 'Aashiqui 3'.

Produced by Bhushan Kumar under the T-Series banner, the project is reportedly aiming for a Diwali release. Adding to the excitement, gossip mills have started buzzing about a possible real-life romance brewing between the lead pair.
