Mumbai, April 23 (NationPress) Actress Priyanka Chopra has vehemently condemned the dreadful terrorist incident in Pahalgam, labeling it as reprehensible.

She expressed that these individuals were enjoying their vacations in Kashmir, only to witness the tragic loss of their loved ones before their eyes.

Priyanka shared on her IG, "What transpired in Pahalgam is absolutely reprehensible. People were there for vacations, honeymoons, celebrating with family. They were merely absorbing the beauty of Kashmir. So many innocent lives were caught in a storm they never consented to. Targeted, right in front of their loved ones."

She remarked that this tragedy will linger in our memories for a long time. "This is not a tragedy we can simply move past. This heinous attack should awaken the conscience of humanity. This will haunt us for a long time," PeeCee added.

"To those who are grieving, displaced, mourning, and living in fear, my thoughts and prayers are with you. I am deeply pained by this," Priyanka concluded.

In addition, another Bollywood star, Alia Bhatt, also expressed her sorrow on social media regarding the Pahalgam attack. She took to her Instagram to share a heartfelt message for the victims, stating, "The news from Pahalgam is heart-wrenching. Innocent lives lost. Tourists, families, people who were simply...living. Seeking beauty. Seeking peace. And now there’s only grief. And the unbearable weight of it."

“Every time something like this occurs, it erodes our shared humanity. May those souls find eternal rest, and may those left behind somehow find strength - though I have no idea how we even begin to ask that of them,” Alia added.

Moreover, actress Janhvi Kapoor was also devastated over the innocent lives lost in this terrorist act.

The 'Dhadak' actress remarked, “Cowardly, trigger-happy, soullessly conditioned monsters on a mission to carry out barbaric acts of injustice in a misinformed guise of duty. I pray for justice, yet I fear this time nothing will suffice to quell the seething anger resulting from such repeated acts of terror and evil. I pray for the souls we lost and their families. Your people are with you. We mourn with you. May god's strength see you through this unimaginable sorrow.”

Numerous other celebrities, including Karan Johar, Anil Kapoor, and Anushka Sharma, have also voiced their outrage over the Pahalgam attack, where approximately 28 individuals were gunned down in a terror incident on Tuesday.
