Bollywood actor Varun Dhawan has reacted in strong words to the culture of media personnel poking their cameras to get reactions from celebrities. His message was pertaining to the alleged suicide of actress Malaika Arora's father, Anil Arora, on Wednesday.
Varun took to the Stories section of his Instagram and put up a note requesting the media to be considerate and empathetic towards the people who have suffered a tragedy. He wrote, "It is the most insensitive thing to point cameras in the face of people who are grieving. Please think what you people are doing or what someone is going through when you do this. I understand it is work but sometimes another human might not be okay with this #humanity.
Varun's message was for the media personnel who pointed cameras at the grieving family of Malaika Arora after her father allegedly died by suicide on Wednesday. Anil Arora fell from his residence in Ayesha Manor building at around 9:00 am on Wednesday when the actress was on her way to Pune for an event, and she made an emergency U-turn and came back to Mumbai.
According to media reports, the mortal remains have been taken for post-mortem to Bhabha Hospital. Other details related to death are still under development. The matter is under investigation with Mumbai Police.
Malaika was born in Thane, Maharashtra. Her parents divorced when she was 11 years old and she shifted to Chembur with her mother and sister, Amrita Arora. Her mother - Joyce Polycarp is a Malayali Christian and her father - Anil Arora was a Punjabi who worked in the Indian Merchant Navy.
Soon after the incident, ex-husband Arbaaz Khan was spotted outside her apartment, along with her rumoured ex-boyfriend Arjun Kapoor.
