Nikitin Dheer, son of the late actor Pankaj Dheer, has strongly condemned the paparazzi for their intrusive tactics, especially during times of heightened emotional distress for celebrities. Following his father’s passing and amidst concerns for Dharmendra’s health, Dheer took to social media to express his outrage. He described the paparazzi’s presence as feeling like being ‘encircled by vultures,’ highlighting a severe lack of human decency. Dheer was particularly disturbed by footage of Jeetendra, where the veteran actor appeared vulnerable, and felt it was exploited for clicks. He criticized the current media frenzy around Dharmendra’s hospitalization, calling it a ‘demise of humanity’ driven by the pursuit of likes and views. Dheer urged the media to be more considerate and understand the gravity of the situations they cover, stating that turning people’s hardships into a spectacle is unacceptable. He expressed a sense of helplessness, acknowledging that his words might not change the situation but felt compelled to speak out against the ‘nonsense’.
