However, what has really irked netizens is the fact that he did not shut the car door while leaving, reported Pinkvilla. The clip received over 50,000 views in less than two hours.
One Instagram user commented, "Arrogant! Fame is momentary! Shutting the door of your car is basic manners and courtesy. The higher your ego, the harder you will fall." Another added, “No basic manners to even shut the car gate… it’s instinctive. Horrible manners! Is he imparting the same values to his kids? I find him detestable.”
