Poonam Pandey addressed the internet in a surprising video on Saturday, clarifying that she is alive and well, despite a previous statement announcing her death due to cervical cancer.
In the video, Pandey stated, “I feel compelled to share something significant with you all – I am here, alive. Cervical Cancer didn’t claim me, but tragically, it has claimed the lives of thousands of women who stemmed from a lack of knowledge on how to tackle this disease.”
This comes just one day after a statement on her official Instagram account declared her passing. The sudden retraction has sparked confusion and raised questions. Actress Nikki Tamboli reacted strongly to the news, tweeting, “Absolute cheapness! It’s disheartening to witness the depths some individuals will sink to for a momentary spotlight. Faking one’s death, especially in the context of a serious illness like cancer, is not just tasteless but downright disrespectful. It trivializes the very real struggles that millions face worldwide and breaks the trust of those who genuinely care.”

Pandey’s message emphasizes the importance of awareness and prevention, highlighting the fact that cervical cancer is largely preventable through the HPV vaccine and early detection tests. She urges viewers to visit the link in her bio for further information and encourages everyone to share knowledge about the disease.
The incident coincides with increased national attention to cervical cancer following Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman’s recent budget speech, which addressed the issue.
