New Delhi: Actor Shreyas Talpade, who has starred in many films, was lately the target of a false death hoax, which alarmed his many admirers and disturbed his loved ones. Now, the actor strongly denied the rumours and said on social media that he is "Alive, Happy, and Healthy." Amid the emotional toll it had on his loved ones—especially his little daughter—Shreyas vented his frustration over the fake rumours.


In reaction to the death rumours, Shreyas Talpade posted a long message on Instagram to clarify things. He assured everyone, "Dear All, I want to assure everyone that I am ALIVE, HAPPY, and HEALTHY. I've become aware of a viral post claiming my demise. While I understand that humour has its place, when it's misused, it can cause real harm. What may have started as a joke by someone, is now creating unnecessary worry and playing with the emotions of those who care about me, especially my family."


He added, "My little daughter, who goes to school every day, is already anxious about my well-being, constantly asking questions and seeking reassurance. This false news only deepens her fears, forcing her to confront more questions from her peers and teachers, stirring up emotions that we've been trying to manage as a family.”


After the fake news spread, Talpade thanked those who had contacted out and said, "I am deeply grateful to all who have checked in on me during this time. Your concern and love mean the world to me.”






The trolls were harshly scolded by Shreyas in his post, and he begged them not to make fun of other people. “To the trolls, I have a simple request: please stop. Don't joke around at the cost of others and don't do this to anyone else," he concluded.
