After Mumbai Police showed its disapproval of Dulquer Salmaan trying out "weirdo" stunts on roads, the popular actor said they should have checked some facts first and called himself "not a weirdo".

A video was posted by Mumbai Police's Twitter handle on Friday. In the video, Dulquer is seen checking his phone while sitting behind the wheel. Actress Sonam Kapoor Ahuja can be heard calling him "weirdo".

The caption read: "We agree with you Sonam Kapoor. Quite a 'weirdo' to try such stunts while driving and putting the lives of fellow drivers at risk too! We don't quite approve of these even in 'reel' life. #NotDone."

Sonam was quick to defend her "The Zoya Factor" co-star.

"We weren't driving. We were rigged on a truck, but I'm glad you guys are concerned. I hope and I know you show the same interest in regular folk as well. Thanks for taking care! #Reelvsreal," she replied.

But Dulquer had apparently seen enough of the drama unfold on social media. He promptly tweeted to Mumbai Police's handle saying that they should check some facts before tweeting things. The actor revealed that the police actually helped them with the permissions and traffic management during the shoot. As proof, he also posted a video of him sitting in the driver's seat where a truck can clearly be seen towing the vehicle. Looks like the Mumbai Police got this one wrong after all!

The "Kali" star also tweeted: "Would appreciate it if you had checked some facts before tweeting this. In fact, Mumbai Police helped us with permissions and traffic management during the shoot and were present the whole time. #notaweirdo."
