Keerthy Suresh's Bollywood debut film Baby John which featured Varun Dhawan in the lead hit the screens yesterday. She had been promoting the film actively and during one such event, she got shocked as her team and scribes went into an argument.

It all began when a scribe clicked her while she was entering into the car and when a member of her team objected, the scribe questioned whether she was new and this shocked Keerthy who tried to snap them with her hand and even as her car drove.

A woman from the Keerthys team interjected, &ldquo;Aise kyu le rahe ho? She is getting in, no? Aise ajeeb kaise le rahe ho? Kyu car ke andar le rahe no, mat lo naa. (Why are you doing this while she&rsquo;s getting in? How are you clicking such an objectionable video? Don&rsquo;t take it as she enters the car.&rdquo;

The scribe remarked &ldquo;Aise aap baat mar karo, pehli baar aaye ho kya? (Don&rsquo;t talk to me like that, are you new here?)&rdquo;
