The sight of a celebrity is enough to send waves of excitement and admiration through crowds. For many years, the term “starstruck” has been associated with celebrity culture, referring to the state in which common people become amazed and captivated by the presence of a well-known person.
At its core, celebrity culture plays a significant role. Celebrities are frequently viewed as mythical individuals who personify prosperity, attractiveness, skill, and charisma. The public feels a sense of familiarity and affection for these people because of the way the media presents their accomplishments and personal lives.

Social media has further intensified this phenomenon. Fans can follow their favorite celebrities closely on social media sites like Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok, which blurs the boundaries between the celebrities’ personal and public lives. This constant exposure fosters a deep sense of connection and attachment, making real-life encounters with celebrities more impactful.
However, in contrast to the typical starstruck behavior, many people still are not affected by this fame game. As a result, they didn’t get starstruck whenever they saw or met a celebrity. In a similar kind of incident, a video of a Swiggy delivery boy passing Bollywood star Taapsee Pannu went viral lately. The peculiarity of the incident makes him a trending topic of discussion on the Internet. Even Swiggy has reacted to it.
Swiggy delivery boy passes Bollywood star Taapsee Pannu without getting starstruck
A Swiggy delivery man recently became the topic of online discussion when a video of him passing Bollywood superstar Taapsee Pannu went viral on various social media platforms. The reason behind his sudden fame, however, was not his reaction to the star but rather his lack of it.

The delivery agent can be seen entering a building where photographers were waiting to take pictures of the celebrity in the 22-second clip that was uploaded online. Even with Taapsee Pannu standing right next to him, he stayed focused on his work and undistracted. The photographers asked him to move away from the frame, and although momentarily confused, he glanced at them before proceeding into the building.
Taapsee Pannu, meanwhile, left the premises and made her way to her car without recognizing the other.
