Desis cringes at Arbaaz Merchant’s father forcing him to pose for paparazzi at NCB

‘You’re embarrassing me,’ we’ve all felt at some point in our life when it comes to our parents, and it’s generally in public.

Arbaaz Merchant, Aryan Khan’s close friend who made headlines recently for his alleged involvement in the Mumbai drugs on cruise case, was photographed on Friday expressing his displeasure with his father for posing in front of the cameras.

On Friday, Aryan Khan, Shah Rukh Khan’s son, and his buddy Arbaaz Merchant arrived before the Narcotics Control Bureau to register their presence. Arbaaz’s father, Aslam Merchant, can be seen posing for the paparazzi while also inviting Arbaaz to pose as they leave the NCB headquarters in a video that has gone viral. Aslam summons Arbaaz and flashes a smile for the cameras. Arbaaz, however, expressing his displeasure with his father’s behaviour, says, “Stop it, Dad,” as he walks away and into his car.

The Internet agreed that Arbaaz’s face-palming as his father forced him to pose summed up how cringey the entire show felt.

Here Arbaaz Merchant’s father Aslam Merchant—who is also his lawyer—is forcing his son to happily pose for the cameras during his mandatory NCB visit every Friday, while Arbaaz visibly is annoyed.

Like a proud father Arbaaz Merchant is flouting his son to media after NCB interrogation whereas My father would have disowned me even if I wasn't guilty.

#arbaazmerchant gets irritated when his dad requests him to pose. His dad has a very genial personality and has always been nice and courteous to media. Today at the NCB office
