Sara Ali Khan, Bhumi Pednekar, Sonu Sood and More React to Uttarkashi Cloudburst Tragedy
Uttarkashi is grappling with the aftermath of two cloud bursts, one in Dharali and another in the Sukhi Top area. Over 130 people have been rescued so far, and further rescue operations are ongoing in the affected areas. Amid this, some Bollywood celebrities have reacted to the tragedy and expressed sorrow.
Bhumi Pednekar, who often speaks about climate change, wrote, “What’s happening in Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand is heartbreaking. Forests being cut down for unsustainable levels of development. Zero thought to balance. Every monsoon these states go through incredible amounts of devastation due to floods. Some visuals are so scary. My heart goes out to those that have to deal with this. We are all nothing in front of the wrath of nature. Learn.”
Actress Urvashi Rautela released a statement that reads, “As a daughter of Haridwar, every stone, every river, every breath of Uttarakhand is part of my soul. Today, seeing the devastating floods in the Kheer Ganga river in Uttarkashi—my land, my people, my family—I feel an ache that words can barely hold.”
Sonu Sood took to X (formerly Twitter) to react to the tragedy. He posted, “Heartbroken by the devastating floods & cloudburst in Uttarkashi, Uttarakhand. Prayers for every life affected. It’s time the nation comes together — while the govt does its part, we as individuals must stand up for every soul who lost a home, a living, a life.”
