In a bizarre turn of events, actor-model Poonam Pandey’s manager announced her death on 2 February 2024, leaving celebrities and social media users in shock. The announcement, which claimed Poonam had succumbed to cervical cancer, was later revealed to be a publicity stunt aimed at raising awareness about the disease. Poonam Pandey’s team posted on her official Instagram account, “This morning is a tough one for us. Deeply saddened to inform you that we have lost our beloved Poonam to cervical cancer. Every living form that ever came in contact with her was met with pure love and kindness. In this time of grief, we would request for privacy while we remember her fondly for all that we shared.” 

Singer Chinmayi Sripaada initially praised Poonam Pandey for what she believed was a noble thing to do – creating awareness of the disease through her death. Chinmayi, in a eulogy to Poonam, wrote on her X handle the admiration she had for Poonam. The singer commended Poonam for living unabashedly and exposing hypocrisy in societal norms.

Chinmayi wrote, “Poonam Pandey was highly criticized, to state it politely, for the way she lived. She showed us to live unabashedly, and believe in herself, she exposed the hypocrisy in our fake~puritan drama, and in her passing, the star child she is, has created such an awareness for HPV cancer, making this place better than how she found it.”

Expressing her farewell wishes, Chinmayi added, “Thank you for traveling through earth, Poonam. Safe travels and I wish you a kinder Universe, elsewhere. I wish you don’t come across humans if you so wish to reincarnate. You deserve better.”

The shocking revelation that Poonam Pandey’s death was a stunt prompted Chinmayi to delete her earlier eulogy. She expressed her dismay on her social media handle, stating, “Whoever thought faking a death to create awareness was a smart move 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️ Deleting the Eulogy. Most of what I said is still what I feel about her. But this is an incredibly horrible way to create awareness.” The incident has led to a moment of embarrassment for the feminist singer.

Critics wonder whether the universe will be kinder to people like Poonam after such a stunt. Some netizens made fun of Chinmayi’s knee-jerk reactions to everything under the sun.
