Mumbai, April 26 (NationPress) The actress Kriti Kharbanda expressed her sorrow for the families impacted by the Pahalgam terror attack, bringing attention to the mental anguish they are enduring.
Kriti shared a heartfelt message via her IG stories, stating, "There are some thoughts that have been weighing on my heart, and I feel compelled to share them."
Discussing the genuine challenges of PTSD (Post-traumatic stress disorder), the star of 'Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana' urged mental health professionals to extend their support.
"I implore our government, mental health experts, NGOs, and all who are involved in the realm of emotional recovery - please do not wait for these families to seek help. Seek them out instead. Those who are lost cannot be brought back, but we can assist those who remain. They may never fully heal, but we can aid them in managing their pain. Every moment we hesitate, the trauma embeds itself deeper," she expressed.
Kriti also pointed out that terrorism has no religion. She articulated that the attack aimed not just to instill fear but to create division, writing, "Terrorism has no religion. It is not indicative of a faith, but rather the actions of individuals with a twisted, cowardly mindset. It takes nothing but cruelty to assault people when they are most defenseless. While they are enjoying a holiday and experiencing freedom. This was not simply meant to frighten us; it was designed to divide us, and we must resist that."
"There are no good or bad religions. We never attribute acts of kindness to someone’s religion; however, when violence occurs, we hastily search for a religious motive. This is not only unjust but perilous. It drives us further away from our shared humanity," the 'Guest iin London' actress concluded.
Kriti wrapped up her message with, "We are not expected to move past this. However, we can learn to navigate it...Together."
