Simran Budharup shares chilling experience at Lalbaughcha Raja
Actor Simran Budharup of ‘Kumkum Bhagya’ fame has recalled her horrific experience at Lalbaughcha Raja, where she went with her mother. She said the female bouncer claimed that her ‘mother is not special’ and added that it is because of God there are bhakts.
Recalling the unsavoury moment, Simran said, “I went with my mother, my co-actor and his family to Lalbaugh. So we went through a person who could take us for the darshan. Meanwhile, everyone was pushing us ahead because the rush was so much. We went and stood on the stage.”
She said that the people there did not know that “we are actors and hence all of it happened".
“My mother had taken out her phone to click my pictures. By then, my turn hadn’t come. When my turn came, I had just bowed down and they pushed me like they push everyone else. Around that time, a male sevak snatched the phone from my mother’s hands. She tried to take it back and that is when he pushed her. I saw this and went to him and said ‘you cannot behave like this with my mother’.”
Simran then added that all bouncers came and said he is a senior citizen to which she retaliated saying that he could not behave like this.
“So, these female bouncers came and they just pushed me out. I got furious so I started recording it and the female bouncer tried snatching my phone as well. She said ‘your mother is no special’,” Simran said.
However, the chilling experience will not stop her to visit Lalbaughcha Raja in future.
“I would want to see my god. Everyone has the right over their god. I will not stop going. But I will want one thing from god that next time I perform darshan in VVIP. Otherwise there is no way to reach you (God).”
Moreover, she urged the Lalbaughcha Raja committee members to have a better system.

“This is not the first time you are arranging this event… It has been years and now that people believe in you so much you should have a different system – a ticket or token system. Clearly, this is not working,” she said.
