In another video shared by a paparazzo account on the platform, Sambhavna tugged at the cop’s hand as she approached him. One of her friends shouted at the cop while pointing at Avinash, “Kyu haat lagaya usko (Why did you touch him)?” As Sambhavana pulled Avinash away, the latter told the cop, “Aapne maara (You hit me).” The cop replied, “Maara nahi hai (I didn’t hit you).”

The argument continued with Sambhavna asking the cop repeatedly, “Aapne kameez kaise pakda hai (How could you hold him by the T-shirt)?” The argument ended with the group making their way towards the crematorium.

Fans came forward to support Sambhavna. A fan took to the comments section of the video and said, “Policeman had hit Avinash sir for no reason. Anyone would have fought against it.” Another person commented, “How could he hit him????” A user also said, “Feeling bad for them.”
