Karan is angry at Poonam.
Karan Kundrra lashed out at Poonam Pandey for faking her death for PR campaign.
Poonam Pandey’s ‘Jailer’ in Lock Upp, Karan Kundrra, has expressed his anger over her fake death publicity stunt. A day after Poonam Pandey’s death was announced on her Instagram handle, the actress came out in a video statement on Saturday morning and clarified that she is still alive. She argued that the motive of her death news was to create awareness regarding cervical cancer. However, the ‘awareness stunt’ has not gone down well with the netizens, including her friends.
Karan took to the microblogging site X, formerly known as Twitter, and wrote, “Wahh didi wahhhhh.. aur wahhh tumhari PR agency.. jo bhi phook rahe ho tum log immediately bandh kar do!!! You’ve royally managed to turn a social cause into a laughing matter! Sometimes bad publicity is actually bad publicity..!”

Speaking on Hauterrfly’s Instagram Live, Poonam apologised to everyone and opened up about how all her closest friends are angry at her. “I think I have hurt a lot of people, a lot of my friends and loved ones. I feel terrible. I’ve been receiving a lot of calls. But I did this for a cause. I did not make any money. This was for cervical cancer. No one was willing to take this campaign,” she said.
“Nobody had a clue where I was. My PR team did not know where I was,” Poonam revealed. “I’m sorry to Parul (PR manager), Saisha, Shardul if I’ve hurt you… I don’t know if they’ll even talk to me, but it was purely for a good cause,” Poonam said.
Poonam said that she knows she will receive a lot of backlash for her actions but she believes in her message. She added that she will be spreading more awareness about cervical cancer and meeting cancer patients as well.
