Popular actor Varun Dhawan reportedly took a selfie with a fan on the streets of Mumbai while waiting in traffic. This incident caught the attention of the Mumbai police and in a tweet on Thursday, the police hit out at the actor for flouting rules and said that an e-challan will be issued to him regarding the incident.

However, the actor immediately responded to the issue with an apology.
My apologies 🙏 Our cars weren’t moving since we were at a traffic signal and I didn’t want to hurt the sentiment of a fan but next time I’ll keep safety in mind and won’t encourage this. https://t.co/MEJk56EksG
