Sonnalli came out to dine with her relatives at a popular mall when the incident took place here just last week. The actress flew down to to the capital city for a day to spend some time with her cousin who had come down from China for Christmas.
They wanted the evening to be a private affair so that they could spend some quality family time, and Sonnalli had also planned to take her little nephew and niece to a popular toy store post the dinner. But she never anticipated to draw the crowd she eventually did.
Her cousins were initially amused, and even captured the scene of people pushing each other, but they gradually realised the crowd was getting unruly, and so whisked Sonnalli away, said a source.
Commenting on the experience, the actress said in a statement: "I didn't quite anticipate this. I have been to public places in Delhi before and have experienced being surrounded by fans, but this was something else. However, it does feel good to know that my work has been noticed and that goes to prove, I must be doing something right.
"The incident gives me more motivation to work harder and meet the expectations of those who have shown so much love and appreciation."
