Pap culture in Mumbai has grown significantly over the years. While several stars share cordial relations with paparazzi, others have raised concerns over their behaviour, particularly the way they photograph celebrities and constantly follow them. Fresh off the success of Musafir Cafe, actress Vedika Pinto is still getting used to the growing paparazzi attention after the Netflix web series.Speaking to ANI, she shared that she has been working out at the same gym in Juhu for the past three years, but paparazzi have only recently started waiting outside the fitness centre after figuring out her workout timings, something that genuinely surprised her.
“I’ve been going to the same gym in Juhu for the past three years. Other celebrities also work out there, and the paparazzi have always been around, but they never really paid attention to me. Sometimes, if they were in the mood, they would want to capture a few pictures… I would happily walk into the gym, finish my sessions all sweaty and messy, without worrying about how I looked, and walk out. I don’t think they had really realised that I was working out there. But with all the attention and publicity I’ve been getting lately, they’ve now figured out my gym timings,” Vedika added.
