Feroze Khan, who arrived over two and a half hours late to the press conference, was criticised by the journalist for his tardiness.

The journalist pointed out that the media had been instructed to arrive at 3 pm, and most mainstream media representatives had already left due to the delay.

She further emphasised that celebrities owe their fame not only to their talents but also to the support of their fans and the media.

In response, Feroze Khan interrupted, questioning the role of the media in creating stars, stating, "Has the media made me? The media has been against me for the last three years."

The journalist remained firm in her stance, reiterating that the media plays a significant role in supporting and promoting artists.

As the conversation continued, Feroze Khan offered an explanation for his delay, stating that there was no hot water at his house. The journalist rejected this excuse, saying, "This is not a joke, and keeping people waiting for this long is inappropriate."

The exchange has sparked a fierce online debate, with many social media users criticising Feroze Khan's behaviour as unprofessional.

Some users described his tone as rude and arrogant, calling on the actor to apologise to the journalist for his disrespectful attitude. Many feel that celebrities should show more appreciation and respect towards the media and their audience.
