Continuing further she wrote,  “Stop hounding people who are dealing with personal loss by flashing your camera in their face at their most vulnerable time ! And for what? A few posts? Online portals and channels are equally at fault” Take a stand, DON’T post those pictures and videos ! Stop faking sensitivity by just writing “Heartbreaking” in the captions of such inhuman insensitive posts.” Earlier in the day, actor Kushal Tandon in fury over the over the media coverage of the former Bigg Boss winner.  The actor had shared multiple Instagram stories lashing out at the reaction to Sidharth’s sudden death.
