 "Shoaib Ibrahim breaks silence on being trolled for sharing his safety message amid Pahalgam terror attacks: 'I posted a story informing…'")
Shoaib Ibrahim and Dipika Kakkar were holidaying in Kashmir when the Pahalgam attacks happened. They shared a video on social media informing people about their safety but were brutally trolled. And the actor has broken his silence on the same.
Ibrahim said, ‘We flew from Srinagar to Delhi on April 22. While we were mid-flight, the Pahalgam terror attack occurred, and we had no knowledge about it. There was no connection.’
He added, ‘When we landed and switched our phones on, we were flooded with messages inquiring about our safety. Initially, the news was only a couple of injuries. We thought it was responsible to inform our well-wishers that we were safe, and in the same breath, I mentioned the vlog — but without any intention of promoting it.’
‘It was never my intention to…’
Shoaib also said, ‘I posted a story informing we are fine and we will update you. What a stir that caused. It was picked up by media and YouTube channels. It was never my intention to promote the vlog. I did not have the information that time. Once videos started coming in on social media, I myself felt bad.’
Atul Kulkarni visited Pahalgam days after the heinous attacks and said in a statement that Kashmir belongs to us.
He was also quoted saying, ‘What happened on the 22nd was a very tragic incident; this should not have happened. When I read about it, I thought that every time something like this happened, what would we do?’
The actor added, ‘We post on social media, we talk to friends, we write something, but then I thought, what can I actually do in real action? I read that 90% of the bookings here had been cancelled, even though it’s peak season. We need to support Kashmiriyat and the Kashmiri people.’
