Ayesha Khan narrates harrowing encounter with stalker: 'Very creepily, he shook hands with me...'

Ayesha Khan, a well-known Instagram influencer, recently opened up about a distressing encounter she faced during her stay at a hotel in Hyderabad. Due to an injury, Ayesha is particular about the mattresses she sleeps on, which led her to switch from her usual hotel to one that could provide her with the necessary comfort. However, what started as a routine stay turned unsettling when she was approached by a man claiming to be a friend of her close acquaintance, Ekra. 

Taking to her Instagram handle, Ayesha recounted how she was returning to the hotel from somewhere when she was approached by two men. One of them introduced himself as a friend of Ekra, one of Ayesha's closest friends. He mentioned that he couldn't meet her during her last visit to Hyderabad but was determined to see her this time. Initially, Ayesha thought nothing of it, assuming he was genuinely a friend of Ekra.

However, as the conversation progressed, the man revealed that he had been waiting for her since 9 AM that day. This struck Ayesha as odd because if he was indeed Ekra's friend, there was no need for him to wait so long. He and his companion then requested to take some pictures with her, to which she agreed. The man asked when he could meet her again, and Ayesha suggested he take her manager's contact details to arrange something. But when he insisted on getting her personal number instead, Ayesha refused and advised him to coordinate through her manager.

The conversation took a more unsettling turn when he persistently asked about her current shooting location, to which Ayesha responded that her manager would have that information. The man then shook hands with her in a way that made her uncomfortable. She said, "Then, very creepily he shook hands with me, and I thought to let it go, as he's claiming to be Ekra's friend."

Afterwards, Ayesha called Ekra to ask about this supposed friend. To her shock, Ekra revealed that she had no such friend and warned Ayesha that the man could be a stalker. Ayesha realized how dangerous the situation could have been and felt relieved that she had not shared her personal number. The man later contacted her manager, claiming to be the president of a club or something equally random, further confirming that something was off.

Ayesha concluded her story by reflecting on the lesson it taught her: just as we are cautioned in childhood not to accept food or items from strangers, it's equally important not to engage in conversation with unfamiliar people. She expressed concern over how this person even gained access to the hotel premises and questioned his true identity, leaving her with unsettling thoughts about the encounter.
