A clip of the incident, in Lower Parel, went viral. A man is seen entering the frame and trying to slap the camera. Luckily, the crew switched it back to the studio in time.
Friends no need to panic. Nothing wrong with @wasimakramlive - a few people just objected to the cameras there. That's it

The report further added that the man was inebriated and had no control of his actions. He probably wanted attention from the media.
