Model, actor and reality TV star Poonam Pandey, in a rather shocking development, faked her own death. According to her, she did it to create awareness over cervical cancer. However, the internet users, across social media platforms, are furious at her for taking such a move over a serious illness like cancer.
Amid reports of her passing away, Poonam Pandey on Saturday announced that she was alive and well. Taking to Instagram, Pandey shared a video which she captioned, "I feel compelled to share something significant with you all - I am here, alive. Cervical Cancer didn't claim me."
In another Instagram message, Poonam said that her aim was to spread awareness regarding cervical cancer. "But, it has claimed the lives of thousands of women who stemmed from a lack of knowledge on how to tackle this disease. Unlike some other cancers, Cervical Cancer is entirely preventable. The key lies in the HPV vaccine and early detection tests. We have the means to ensure no one loses their life to this disease," she wrote in the caption, adding, "Let's empower one another with critical awareness and ensure every woman is informed about the steps to take. Visit the link in the bio to delve deeper into what can be done. Together, let's strive to put an end to the devastating impact of the disease and bring #DeathToCervicalCancer.바카라

Meanwhile, in another video, shared on Instagram, Poonam had apologised to her fans for spreading fake news of her being dead. She said, 바카라I'm sorry I've caused this tear and I'm sorry to those whom I've hurt. My intention? To shock everyone into the conversation that we are not talking enough about. Which is cervical cancer. Yes, I faked my demise. Extreme, I know. But suddenly we all are talking about cervical cancer, aren't we?바카라
