Hrithik Roshan's son Hridaan Roshan rushes away from paps, fans slam paparazzi as “Vultures”

Hridaan Roshan runs away from paps

Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan and his ex-wife Sussanne Khan have two sons: Hridaan, 17, and Hrehaan, 19. Both boys typically lead fairly private lives away from the spotlight, preferring to stay out of the spotlight.

As a result, whenever they do appear in public, it immediately becomes a topic of conversation for both the media and fans. However, there has been a lot of online outrage and concern over a recent incident involving Hridaan.

In a social media video, Hridaan can be seen looking upset as paparazzi follow him after spotting him out in public. The teen is seen in the video fleeing from the incessant photographers, who don't stop taking pictures even after he gets into his car safely.

Hridaan's facial expressions make it obvious that the attention is making him uneasy and nervous.

This incident has triggered a strong reaction from fans and netizens, many of whom have taken to Reddit to condemn the paparazzi’s behaviour.

One user wrote, “Paps should be notified by the police against stalking, esp minors.” Another commented, “Wish people took a stronger stance against these vultures. I know often celebs hire them themselves, and that is a separate discussion, but the ones who stalk someone and make their lives uncomfortable should have firmer actions against them.”

Others echoed similar sentiments, with one saying, “Why would you run after a barely legal child like that!? He legit seemed a little scared and accosted.” Another user remarked, “It’s so uncomfortable to watch… Bilkul sharam nahin aa rahi inhe… Bloody vultures.”

The outrage was further intensified by reminders of past instances when Hridaan was subjected to inappropriate comments as a minor.

One person stated, “Poor kid. I also remember the Internet being so creepy towards his looks as a minor, lots of weird comments from clearly middle-aged women. This is literally harassment.”

Many are calling for stricter measures to protect young celebrities from invasive media tactics. “Wtf is wrong with paps? Literally, middle-aged men running behind a minor and traumatising him. This should be an offence. Do these people know the concept of personal space?” a concerned netizen questioned.

This unsettling episode has once again raised important questions about paparazzi culture in India, particularly regarding the boundaries between public interest and invasion of privacy—especially when it involves minors. As of now, Hrithik Roshan and Sussanne Khan have not commented on the incident.

On the work front, Hrithik Roshan is currently promoting his highly anticipated film War 2 with Jr NTR.

War 2 will be released on 14th August.
