While discussing the incident, Murthy’s wife, Sudha Murthy, defended Kareena’s actions, stating that being a popular film actor with a million admirers could be exhausting. Sudha emphasized that actors like Kareena face overwhelming attention compared to others.

Narayana Murthy acknowledged the disparity in their fame but believed that acknowledging fans’ affection, even in a small way, is essential to reduce ego and foster a connection with admirers.

The incident has sparked a debate on social media about celebrity interactions and the expectations placed upon public figures.

While Sudha Murthy’s perspective provides context to Kareena’s actions, Narayana Murthy’s view underscores the significance of acknowledging fans’ affection, regardless of one’s fame.
