Kareena Kapoor Khan faces backlash for ‘skipping queue’ at airport; netizens ask ‘Who gave celebrities this entitlement?'

Kareena Kapoor Khan has landed in the middle of a social media debate after a video of her at the Mumbai airport went viral. The clip shows the actress seemingly bypassing a long queue at the security check and moving ahead of other passengers.Dressed in a peach-coloured traditional outfit, Kareena was seen heading straight through the check, prompting several users online to question the perceived preferential treatment. One user wrote, “Kareena Kapoor broke the line at the airport and straight away moved to the gate. Why do celebrities get to do that? Who gave them this entitlement? Other people who are waiting at the airport also have urgent flights to catch, It's not fair to everyone.”Another commented, “Airport queue scene: Queen Kareena Kapoor arrives! A simple queue can expose the gap between a society of dignified citizenry and a nation of slaves where all are entrenched in the class, caste, superiority, and inferiority power game.”A third post read, “Why VIP racism still happening in India despite even PM Modi warning against it? Are people fool to stand in queue & celebrities can fly over them & pass?”One user tagged the official X handle of Ministry of Civil Aviation and Office of the Home Minister of India and wrote, "Dear @MoCA_GoI and @HMOIndia What kind of special privileges has been accorded to these woke bollywood elites?? And under which law it has been sanctioned?? What a pity!! Common citizens stand in queue and these Dolts behave like super VIPs!!"Even the NCMIndia Council For Men Affairs reacted, stating, “Meet Empowered and Entitled woman Kareena Kapoor who does not like to stand in the queue at the airport. Please stop this special treatment.”While Kareena has not responded to the criticism yet, the viral video has once again sparked a debate around celebrity privilege in public spaces.Amid the controversy, Kareena was also seen attending the ongoing IPL match between Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bengaluru at Wankhede Stadium.She was joined by husband Saif Ali Khan and their sons Taimur and Jeh, as the family cheered for Mumbai Indians in matching jerseys. Saif’s son Ibrahim Ali Khan was also spotted at the stadium.
