Veteran actress Raveena Tandon recently spoke out against an airline crew member for secretly filming actress Shraddha Kapoor and her rumored boyfriend Rahul Mody on a flight, sparking a debate about privacy for public figures.
The Viral Flight Video
The incident revolves around a video that first surfaced online about five months ago, showing Shraddha Kapoor and Rahul Mody traveling economy class. In the clip, the couple appeared to be quietly engrossed in something on Shraddha’s phone, both twinning in white outfits.
This candid moment caught internet attention initially, but the video recently resurfaced for a new reason. It revealed an airline staff member discreetly recording the couple, then turning the camera towards herself with a smile.
Raveena Tandon Slams Privacy Breach
Upon seeing the resurgent video, actress Raveena Tandon promptly condemned the crew member’s actions. She commented on the post, stating, “This is a breach of privacy. The crew should know better than to do this. Consent must be taken. Not expected from crew members to do this.”
Raveena’s strong reaction highlighted her concern for the couple’s right to personal space, even in a public setting like an airplane. Her words quickly ignited a discussion among social media users.
The Public Debate
Raveena’s stance received mixed reactions from her followers and other social media users. Many applauded her for defending the couple’s privacy, agreeing that consent is crucial, regardless of a person’s public status.
One supporter commented, “Absolutely agree with Raveena ma’am. You should learn to give privacy! They are not 24/7 stars… they are humans too and need their own time and space.” This sentiment echoed the call for respecting celebrities’ personal lives.
However, others defended the airline crew member. Some argued that being in a public space, like a flight, makes one susceptible to being filmed, especially as a public figure. A user remarked, “The video was taken in a flight, not in someone’s home. A flight is public transport. She’s a public figure—fans capturing such moments isn’t a crime. Cabin crew members are humans too.”
Shraddha Kapoor’s Blossoming Relationship
While the privacy debate continues, Shraddha Kapoor and Rahul Mody’s relationship appears to be quietly flourishing. Rahul was recently spotted in the background of a video where Shraddha was playfully dancing, delighting eagle-eyed fans.
The couple also made a joint appearance at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s pre-wedding celebrations in Jamnagar last year, further fueling relationship speculation. Shraddha herself confirmed being in a relationship in a 2024 interview with Cosmopolitan, without naming Rahul.
She spoke about her “Pisces traits” related to love, describing a desire for a “fairytale aspect” and enjoying spending quality time with her partner, whether it’s watching movies, dining out, traveling, or simply being together.
