Askoke Pandit slams Poonam Pandey

A day after Poonam Pandey faked her death, the actress came open to claim that it was all her way to spread awareness about cervical cancer. However, this act of the controversial model-actor hasn’t gone down well with many including filmmaker and Film and Television President Ashok Pandit.

By sharing a video, the director has demanded legal action against Poonam Pandey, calling her act shocking and distasteful.

In his video, Pandit was heard saying, “It’s really sad and shocking the way an actress announced her death because of cervical cancer.

She has played with the emotions of people. She has made fun of all those who are battling this disease of cervical cancer, which is a very serious disease. And she’s also mocked the hard work, the seriousness of the government of India, the medical practitioners, the doctors, the nurses who are together fighting this battle of cancer.”

He further said, “I, with my full honesty, would like the law of enforcing agencies to take action against this actress.

A case should be filed against her for speaking lies to the nation, for speaking lies to the people of the industry who really were very sad yesterday and for no rhyme or reason. She mocked their emotions. There has to be an end to this kind of mockery, the PR exercise.”
