Earlier, netizens criticised the influencer for her action, sparking a huge debate on celeb privacy online.
On June 3, Avinash Tiwary experienced an incident when a fan secretly recorded him working out at the gym. A fan, Arpita Thapa, shared the video on her Instagram in which she recorded the actor while he was working out. She captioned the post, “Mtlb sorry @avinashtiwary15 for the sneaky clicks."
