Veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah, on Thursday, made it to the headlines because of an opinion piece that he wrote in a newspaper. In the article, he claimed that he was disinvited from Mumbai University's Jashn-E-Urdu event at the last moment, and he hinted that political reasons were behind it. The actor, along with his wife, Ratna Pathak Shah, and another woman, was clicked at the Hyderabad airport. A Times Reporter spotted Shah at the airport and questioned him about his opinion piece.

Initially, the veteran actor politely refused to comment on it. However, the journalist kept asking the question and followed Shah to his car. This made the actor angry, and he shouted at the reporter and pushed the mic. Check out the video below...

In the video, we can see that when the reporter initially asks Shah about it, the actor says, "I do not want to talk about this issue, so please don't harass me." When the journalist kept on following him and asking the question, Shah got angry and said, "I told you I don't want to talk about it," and pushed his mic.

When the reporter asked, "Why are you pushing the mic?", the actor said, "Because you are shoving it into my face." The reporter further asked, "Why are you getting angry, sir?" To this, the Sarfarosh actor replied, "Because you are bothering me. You take that (mic) out of my face."

Later, another woman with the actor tells the journalist, "He doesn't want to answer. Why can't you take a no for an answer?" Shah further slams the reporter and says, "You can't see I have just come from a journey, and I have said to you politely, I don't want to talk about this issue. Why are you harassing me?"

When the reporter says that he is not harassing him, the actor shouts and says, "You are harassing me. Do you understand what I am saying?"

Later, Shah's wife and actress Ratna Pathak Shah tells him not to speak, and they move on to sit in their car.
