Disheartening! Mandira Bedi trolled for performing Raj Kaushal's last rites

Mandira Bedi's husband, Raj Kaushal, passed away due to a heart attack.

MUMBAI: Mandira Bedi's husband, Raj Kaushal, passed away due to a heart attack. The actress' photos carrying out his last rites  surfaced on social media. And while she did break patriarchal conventions, it was a private moment that should not have made it to social media. But what was worse were the comments people left on the photos.

While most commented on the media's insensitivity in capturing a person's private moments and paid their condolences, a section decided this was the right moment to troll Mandira for not behaving like an "adarsh Bhartiya naari."

Because she carried out the last rites of her husband, a practice traditionally performed by male members and she did it in 'Western attire', rather than in a saree. 

For starters, restricting a person from carrying out the last rites of a deceased relative simply because of gender is a regressive custom.

More importantly, what culture, tradition, or 'dharam' are we defending, where it's okay to pass comments on someone's attire, even as they are struggling through a deep, personal loss. 

Thid has to be an absolute violation of human decency where a person grieving the loss of her partner is subjected to vile trolling. 

Here are a few comments.
