BOMBAY TIMES (February 24, 2019)

Things got a little too uncomfortable for Evelyn Sharma during the shoot of Saaho, which also features Prabhas and Shraddha Kapoor in the lead. After a long day of shoot with co-star Neil Nitin Mukesh, where both actors were shooting intense action sequences, Evelyn decided to call it a day and left the set of the film. She headed to her hotel, which was also located in Ramoji Film City. That’s when things got weird for the Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani actress. A fan spotted her leaving the set and figured out which hotel she was staying at. He made his way to the hotel lobby and waited for hours to catch a glimpse of Evelyn. The incident didn’t end there; the fan also managed to figure out the actress’ room number and landed up on her floor catching her unawares when she was heading to her room.

Taken aback by the fan’s invasive presence, Evelyn reached out to her manager who saved the day with quick thinking. They called for the hotel staff who respectfully escorted the fan out of the premises. Recalling the incident, Evelyn says, “It’s really nice when your fans come to meet you, but sometimes it gets scary when they do show up at the wrong time. I don’t mean to be hostile, I love my fans and I look forward to spending time with them, but sometimes I just feel it becomes overwhelming when they wait under the apartment or hotel building for hours on end. That can be a scary scenario.”

On the work front, Evelyn is looking forward to her special song in an upcoming Bollywood film and she’s also just shot for her first international show in Berlin.
