Bharti Singh Reacts to Backlash:

In her latest vlog on her YouTube channel, Bharti is seen getting emotional while addressing the harsh comments she has been receiving for being in Thailand while her family faces uncertainty in Amritsar amid rising tensions.

Bharti shared some of the hurtful comments she's been receiving, such as 'You should be ashamed for being in Thailand while your family is in Amritsar' and 'There are tensions in the country and you're roaming around Thailand'.

She began her video by acknowledging her family's presence in Amritsar, reassuring her audience that they are safe. “Yes, the city and the country are going through a turmoil. But my family is safe.... I have full trust in my country and the government... India is a very strong nation aur isse koi hilaa nahi sakta (nothing can shake its spirit)... When I read your comments, I don't get angry. I just feel aap log bahot bhole ho (I sometimes think that you people are very innocent)," she added.

The comedian added that the family is safe and doing well, adding that they always respond with a smile whenever she calls them. Bharti shared, "I want to clarify to everyone I'm here for work and not for any holiday. We had a shoot for 10 days, and we committed 3-4 months ago to this project. A lot of preparation has gone into it, and it is not professional to ditch someone at the last moment”.
