Paps are low-wage workers who could not find any better jobs. Obviously they have no formal education which is why they ended up with such jobs, otherwise no willing person would swallow their dignity and run behind other people for pictures.

The way she mocks the way they look and dress reeks of classism.

If you want to complain about them, complain about the culture. All these pap jobs are created by media houses, and they simply follow the instructions they are given.

I'm totally with her when she gets mad about a fan touching her or getting too close to take pics without permission etc , some people really need to be given a lesson on boundaries ,but these 'paps' are just trying to make a living , there's no need to insult them. She could learn a thing or two from Aishwarya as to how to deal with it gracefully. Anyway the more she flares up the more bytes and views they get so I guess everyone is happy at the end of the day.

Yes Paparazzi can be annoying, intrusive and may overstep

But Jaya Bachchan should be polite with paparazzi

Yes, she is strict, straight, disciplined, with a set of values she won't change - I knew this before. Nothing that surprised me in this conversation. However, like every other human being, she has multiple facettes...Barka only focussed on one... and honestly, talking with Jaya should never be on a stage (like that) - if one wants r e a l l y to get to know this very special woman.

But I loved her as an actress.

No, not at all... the hearing problem is due to her physical age (77 now), but otherwise no senility
