Paras Chhabra attended the funeral of his friend and Bigg Boss 13 co-contestant Shefali Jariwala on Saturday. A visibly heartbroken Paras was seen surrounded by media as he arrived for the funeral. In a vulnerable moment, Chhabra slammed a reporter for spreading negative publicity.
In a video doing the rounds on social media, a reporter was seen chasing Paras as he arrived for the funeral. Asked how he was coping with the loss, Paras lashed out at the paparazzi, referring to a particular news report that, in his view, had crossed the line.
The report that Paras questioned was about Shefali`s husband, Parag Tyagi taking the couple`s pet dog Simba for a walk shortly after the actress`s demise. It led to a lot of trolling with some subtly implying a lack of grief or emotional response.
