Veteran actor Nagarjuna has issued an apology on X after his bodyguard pushed a disabled fan of the actor at the airport. The incident was caught on camera and the video went viral quickly. Nagarjuna was seen walking out of an airport accompanied by his bodyguard. Actor Dhanush was also seen next to him.
The video shows as Nagarjuna walked out of the airport, a cafe staff approached him. His bodyguard immediately pushed him away, making the fan stumble and fall. Nagarjuna didn’t seem to notice and continued to walk. Meanwhile, Dhanush, walking a few steps behind Nagarjuna, did notice and was seen looking back a few times though he kept walking holding his son’s hand.
Nagarjuna wore a black shirt, beige pants and shoes. Dhanush was seen in a blue T-shirt, matching pants and shoes.

The video was shared on Reddit. Reacting to the video, a person wrote, “He is disabled. How much humiliated he must have felt.” A comment read, “This is heartbreaking. That man didn’t deserve such manhandling.” “There are better ways to handle fans who come too close to the celeb,” another person said. “Now I have a heavy heart...this world is so cruel,” read another comment.
