While success and failure are transient, how a celebrity behaves with his fans during these phases is equally noteworthy too. Kapil Sharma, who is back in the reckoning with the response his television show has garnered, was said to be back to his haughty ways at a recent event at a suburban five star.

A source who was present at the venue tells us that out of the celebrity guests like Ranveer Singh, Mika Singh and a few others who were apparently paid to make their star appearances, the stand-up comedian was the only star who refused to click any pictures with his fans at the party by a real estate professional. “Kapil not only declined to pose for pictures and selfies, but he was also rather curt in his refusal. His attitude completely put off the guests who requested him for a photograph,” says our informer, adding that the Simmba actor was a lot more welcoming in clicking selfies with his admirers. “Ranveer was his usual warm and friendly self when some guests requested him for pictures. His enthusiasm floored them and they were amazed by how nicely he treated them all,” adds our source.

Hope Kapil saw that and learnt from Ranveer how to treat his admirers.
