Huma stated that there have been times when stars needed to promote their films, they invite paps to premieres. \u201cWhenever we want to be spotted somewhere, we call them. So, I don\u2019t want to put all the blame on them,\u201d she said. She went on to add that in her 10-12-year-old career, she always maintained a healthy relationship with the paparazzi. She said that whenever she doesn\u2019t look her best, she respectfully asks them not to click her, and they oblige her request.<\/p>\n
Not only Huma, but Priyamani also spoke about how celebrities use paps to promote themselves. She said that most of the Bollywood people call the paparazzi to airports, cafes and promotional events and pay them to get themselves clicked.<\/p>\n
