Poonam Pandey’s New Year Eve performance at Bangalore
As per reports, Poonam Pandey while Poonam was dancing on an Item number from her upcoming Kannada Film, a group of drunk Men broke the cordon separating the stage from the audience and upto the stage and started manhandling her. Their number was such that even 100 Security Guards could not control them.
To save herself, Poonam ran away from the Stage but the Crowd gone Wild started chased her until she locked herself in her hotel room.
The incident was revealed only after she discussed it with media one week later.
Talking to newspersons Poonam said, “I realised on that evening that no amount of bouncers and bodyguards can protect you from a drunken mob. The men, who jumped on to the stage, had only one thing on their mind. And they were not thinking with their minds. They were thinking with another part of the anatomy,”
“I’ve never run so fast in my life. I am sure I gave Milkha Singh a run for his money. I ran upstairs all the way to my room. But guess what? The mob chased me to my room! So there I was, running into my room with the mob in hot pursuit and the bodyguards and bouncers chasing them. It’d have been comic if it wasn’t so scary,” she further added.
Poonam could not come out of trauma caused by the incident for long time. Now she has made a resolution of not performing in such parties ever again in her lifetime.
