Vanita Sharma was reacting to reports of Sheezan Khan asking the court for special permission to travel abroad to participate in Khatron Ke Khiladi 13. “I have heard that Sheezan has been offered reality shows, including Khatron Ke Khiladi. What message are these channels wanting to impart to society by giving a chance to someone undertrial for a serious offence under section 306 of IPC and against whom the police have submitted a charge sheet of 524 pages?” Vanita Sharma said in a statement as reported by ANI.
Tunisha Sharma’s mother slammed the makers of reality shows and said people watch shows and want to become like their idols. “By committing any crime, you become a celebrity and the window of reality shows opens directly for you. We watch these reality shows with our families. Our children and aspiring actors will feel that committing crimes is the easiest way to get through these reality shows. People see their favourite actors on TV and make them their idols and try to be like them,” Vanita Sharma added.
Vanita Sharma added that she will have to wait for justice to be delivered for her daughter’s death for the rest of her life. “I request TV channels and makers not to glorify anyone who has not proven innocent. Rahi baat court trial mein lagne wale samay ki to mujhe meri beti ka intezar ab zindagi bhar karna hai (As for the time taken in the court trial, I have to wait for my daughter for the rest of my life,” Tunisha Sharma’s mother added in the statement.
