The pre-wedding festivities, held three days prior in Gwalior, featured performances by Bollywood stars Jacqueline Fernandez and singer B Praak. However, Fernandez's dance performance sparked backlash on social media due to its timing, as it came shortly after the Pahalgam terror attack, which claimed 26 lives. Many slammed the extravagant entertainment amid national mourning.
"When the whole country is mourning the Pahalgam attack, Jacqueline Fernandez is dancing at the wedding of Madhya Pradesh BJP leader Narendra Tomar's son. BJP's nationalism is just a shame," one X user said.
Another user said: "Bollywood actor Jacqueline Fernandez performed at Prabal Pratap Singh Tomar's wedding ceremony. [It was the] wedding ceremony of Vidhan Sabha Speaker Narendra Singh Tomar's son..Where is the sorrow of Pahalgam?"
Echoing the sentiments, another X user said: "While the whole country is mourning the Pahalgam incident, Madhya Pradesh BJP leader Narendra Singh Tomar is getting Bollywood actress Jacqueline Fernandez to do an item dance at his son's wedding,"
