Photos of a teary-eyed Aishwarya Rai Bachchan at her father's funeral were posted by several publications. Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt's sister Shaheen criticised media for treating a funeral like a 'party'.
Shaheen Bhatt took to social media to share a hard-hitting post lashing out at media for sharing pictures from Aishwarya's father Krishnaraj Rai's last rites who passed away on Saturday.
While sharing the note on Instagram, Shaheen Bhatt said, "With respect to the photos of a mourning Aishwarya Rai that are all over the internet."
Shaheen Bhatt wrote, "I have never understood the media showing up to high-profile funerals to take pictures of grieving family members. Death is traumatic enough without pictures of you at your most broken being circulated all over social media. And why does anyone want to see that? Does anyone really want to click on links that promise us photographs of grief-stricken celebrities crying over the loss of their parent? It is not okay to be voyeur of death. It is not okay to treat a funeral like a party and show up to take pictures of the mourners in their finest whites. If you come across pictures like this please don't click and contribute. We need to learn how to be human again."
