To get Aditya’s attention, a lot of guys would scream RJ and jump off to replicate the most talked about scene from ‘Aashiqui 2’.

Aditya got really worried as someone could easily get hurt so he walked up to the youngsters, had a chat requesting them not to do this to gain his attention. After a conversation, lots of pictures, all of the fans satisfied walked off very happy. Only after that did Aditya resume his work.

For Aditya his role of RJ has become an alternate identity where people often call or refer to him as RJ.
