MUMBAI: Kriti Sanon, who is one of the most popular Bollywood actresses, has called late veteran actor Dilip Kumar's funeral coverage 'insensitive'.

The actress has recalled watching videos of the paparazzi covering the funeral, and said that it made her angry. Calling the coverage 'insensitive', she said that 'they were talking so badly', laughing and shouting at each other. Kriti said to a leading daily, “I was angry when I saw those videos. It was horrible. Firstly, I don't think there's any need to cover funerals. That is a very personal thing. If tomorrow, you're going through a loss, your family would not want it to flash everywhere. And why do people want to see that part of it, let it be private. And secondly, even if you are covering, why are you talking behind the camera, mute it. They were talking so badly, laughing about not getting the angle, shouting each other to get aside. It was really bad to see that. It is very insensitive."

Further, the actress added, "I know that there's demand for information constantly. But that doesn't mean that we leave our sensitivity and our human side and just do anything and everything. So it made me very angry at that time, it was an impulsive post and I do stick by it. I don't have any idea if any change will happen or has happened because of that or not. I just felt like voicing it and that's what I did.”

Dilip Kumar died on July 7 and was buried at the Juhu Qabrastan in Mumbai. At that time, Kriti had written, "Is it necessary for media and paparazzi to cover someone's funeral? A funeral is a very personal affair and media should let people mourn in peace without a camera flashing in their faces! It's disturbing to see videos of such a sensitive event with photographers talking casually in the background. I urge the media to please not cover funerals and give the family and closed ones their privacy. Would you like such a personal loss being flashed all over? Lets change things a bit.. Lets put humanity before profession!"
