Some encounters are pleasant and some are not. We stumbled over one such Reddit thread, where people have shared the most awkward celebrity encounters. Some of these encounters are really funny! Hope you will enjoy them as much as we did!
1. “8 year old me was at O’Hare airport in Chicago getting ready to head to India for the first time. I was really open as a kid and saw that there was a person standing behind me who was “white”. I asked him “hey, is this your first time heading to India?” Thinking me and him were on the same boat. He looks down at me and smiles and tells me “yes this is my first time”. I then try to be cool and say “India can be scary, hope you have a good journey”. He replies by saying “you will see me around in India {laughs}”. At the counter my parents find out it was Hrithik Roshan. 8 year old me was hella upset that Krissh didn’t even tell me he was Krissh” – KashaKazul20

DAD: Is this how loud you’re supposed to be a flight? Don’t you have any manners?

4. “I met the Queen of England when I was 14. I had to hand her some flowers, which went off okay, though I screwed up the handover a bit. I just kind of hung around next to her looking awkward, told her rather desperately about my dog and my friend’s dog while the rest of the ceremony was going on.” -siljak
5.”I met or rather saw Depika Padukone and Ranveer Singh. I was super late for an event, I was running towards the hotel washroom to change and they assumed I’m going to ask for pics. They tried telling me something but I excused myself and continued running.” -pavvvvv
6. “We were in Katra, my dad told me Chunky Pandey is here and we have to rush before he boards the chopper for Vaishno Devi. So I ran, took my autograph book and then saw it wasn’t Chunky but Govinda in a yellow sweater and pants. He smiled and called me to take a picture and I said, “You are not Chunky Pandey” and walked away in a huff as I was offended by his presence. My dad was so embarrassed, and then my brother was forced to take pics with Govinda since I went MIA!” -Idlewild03
7. “Last summer, I bumped into Emma Watson at Brown University. I introduced myself, and could hardly speak because I was so nervous that she had to tell me to take a few deep breaths before talking. Overall, it was pretty embarrassing, but she was very polite and cute in person.” -uri44
8. “I once entered a famous restaurant without reading any signs, and suddenly, I was in the middle of a photoshoot consisting of Urmila Mantondar, Mehr Jessia, Madhu Sapre and I think, Aishwarya Rai. All I heard was “GET OUT”. The restaurant was booked for a private event which was this photoshoot and I marched in– so this was easily the most embarrassing moment of my life” – bhuvi100x
9. “I met Stephen Hawking who was behind me in line to buy batteries. I asked, “Are you Stephen Hawking?” He said, ” Yes.” I said, “Cool!” He had a huge grin on his face. We grinned at each other awkwardly. He seemed like he was waiting for me to say something and I couldn’t think of anything to else to say so I just kept smiling at him.” – CuilHandLuke

13. “Once met Kareena and Karishma Kapoor along with Madhuri Bhandarkar at Mumbai airport. I was just 12 at the time and I said, “Oh look, it’s Kareena Kapoor”. She gave my family a death stare.
