Actress Mandira Bedi recently performed her husband Raj Kaushal’s last rites and carrying the bier, which is traditionally done by men in India. While some were all praise for her as she broke stereotypes, but there were few who trolled the actress for doing so. Now, singer Sona Mohapatra has come out in support of Mandira.

On Friday, Sona took to Twitter and mentioned how Mandira was being questioned for her dress code at Raj’s funeral and performing the rituals. She wrote, “That some people are still commenting on Mandira Bedi’s dress code or choice to carry out her husband Raj Kushal’s last rites shouldn’t surprise us. Stupidity is more abundant than any other element in our world after all ..” Have a look:

Soon after she tweeted, fans started coming out in her support. One of the fans wrote, “Rightly said. It is disgraceful and shows lack of human feelings to even think, talk about it.” Another fan wrote, “Well said. That’s no one’s business. People should stand by her during this time and admire her for the courage.”

Raj Kaushal passed away after he suffered a cardiac arrest on June 30. The news of his demise was confirmed by a close friend, Jitu Savlani, who told ETimes, “He suffered a cardiac arrest early in the morning.”

Dino Morea, who was launched in Bollywood by Raj Kaushal, earlier told ETimes, “This is so sad. I was supposed to meet him last week and I couldn’t because I was not feeling well. He was such a great guy and it is sad that such a thing happened, he is so young and he had a heart attack this morning at 4:30. Just makes us wonder, we need to live life and live it every day. This is so sad, I am at a loss for words.”

Raj Kaushal was 49 years old and is survived by wife Mandira Bedi and two kids – Vir and Tara.
