Aanchal Tiwari
has found herself flooded with calls from concerned friends and family. The flurry of inquiries follows multiple publications incorrectly reporting the tragic demise of
Bhojpuri
actress Aanchal Tiwari in a car accident on February 25. However, the confusion arises from media outlets mistakenly using images of the Mumbai-based Aanchal Tiwari.
While talking to ETimes, Aanchal shared, “I am not related to the Bhojpuri industry at all.
It was sheer irresponsible behavior by whoever used my pictures. I am just appalled by the way certain media works, not doing any fact-checks or checking for the right names and pictures. It is extremely saddening. I have been getting multiple calls from my friends and family members. Everyone has been worried about my health. However, what really triggered me was how people started trolling me. There were a few comments stating that I am staging my own death like Poonam Pandey did. But I had nothing to do with this. I did not do any publicity stunt.”
Aanchal Tiwari is known for her portrayal of Raveena in the series 'Panchayat'. The
actress
is set to reprise her role in the upcoming third season of the show.
