Poonam Pandey denied reports about her death, clarifying that she is alive and not a victim of cervical cancer, as previously said. She pointed out the need of cervical cancer education and avoidance through frequent testing and HPV vaccination.
The news of her claimed death spread via an Instagram post on her official account, prompting condolences from celebs including Kangana Ranaut and Anupam Kher.
However, suspicion developed due to the unexpected nature of the revelation and Poonam’s apparent health previous to the news. Many speculated that it could have been a PR trick.
Poonam’s video message aims to highlight the seriousness of cervical cancer and advocate proactive actions to prevent it. Her clarification highlights the necessity for correct information dissemination.
