Sanya started her Monday by exercising her right to vote during the fifth phase of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. After casting her vote, Sanya met paps, stationed outside several polling stations. She posed for the images, while flaunting her inked finger. And all this after escaping face injury.
What happened
When Sanya walked out of the polling booth, she was being followed by paparazzi waiting outside, who wanted to click her and capture her opinion on camera.
It was during this chaos when she was about to get hit by a camera in her face. She escaped it by leaning backwards.
“Arrey, aaram se (Please be careful). Wahan chalke aaram se le lo. (Let’s go to the side and then you can click the pictures,” she said in a state of shock, but maintained her composure throughout.
For the voting day, Sanya opted for a relaxed look. She was seen in an oversized T-shirt and trousers.
