Chandigarh, May 19 

'Diya Aur Baati Hum' actress Deepika Singh was severely criticised after she shared pictures posing beside an uprooted tree amid Cyclone Tauktae in Mumbai. 

Dressed in a printed outfit, Deepika took to Instagram to post pictures from her ‘Cyclone Tauktae photoshoot’. 

“You can’t calm the storm, so stop trying. What you can do is calm yourself, embrace the nature and it’s gloomy moods because the storm will pass,” she wrote along with the post.

She also added that the “tree fell right outside my house, nobody got hurt but while putting it away from my door, Rohit and I managed to take few pictures to remember Cyclone Tauktae.” Rohit Raj Goyal is Deepika’s husband.

“Having fun,” Deepika, best known for playing Sandhya, said as she danced amid the heavy rains in the Maharashtra capital.

On seeing this, social media users were left furious.

“I'm sorry but stupidly posing with a fallen tree during cyclone is hazardous. I heard that people died. It's unsafe and unnecessary. You don't need motivation from people like these,” a comment on Twitter reads.

Another user added, “I'm cringing.” “People are dying due to the cyclone and you are enjoying this. What a shame,” wrote another.

Love that girlboss is #collectingmoments in a cyclone that is wrecking people’s homes. Such moments are truly the equivalent to #fullmadness and #therapy

I wish I had her motivation to dress up, put on ear rings, make up, and let my hair down to move a fallen tree. I went in a loose tee and torn pyjamas with my hair tied up, to move a part of a tree that had fallen on our car. Best, I didn't take my phone cuz it'd get wet.
