Poonam Pandey fake death:  The actress shocked everyone with a fake announcement of her own death. In a video, she admitted feeling proud of the attention her death hoax garnered, stating that it served as a way to raise awareness about cervical cancer, the supposed cause of her demise. However, many in the industry, including her friends, aren't quick to forgive her for what they deem as an 'insensitive' joke.

Poonam posted a video where she said, “I am alive. I didn't die of cervical cancer. Unfortunately, I can't say that about those hundreds and thousands of women who have lost their lives because of cervical cancer.”
