Paras Chhabra reveals the truth behind viral video of Parag Tyagi walking his dog 'Simba' after Shefali Jariwala's demise
The clip sparked strong backlash, with many criticizing him for his actions during such a tragic time.
Addressing the criticism around the viral video, Shefali's close friend and Bigg Boss 13 co-contestant Paras clarified the situation and shared the emotional truth behind the moment. In an exclusive conversation with IANS, Paras revealed that Shefali Jariwala and Parag Tyagi were extremely close to their pet dog, treating him as a family member.
The trio lived together, and Shefali's sudden passing left a deep emotional void in their home.
Paras shared that in such a moment of grief, it's only natural for Parag to hold on even more tightly to their pet, who now represents a part of Shefali's presence.
He further shared, "Shefali and Parag were very close to their pet. He was a family member to them. Three members were living together in a house, and one of them is suddenly gone.

In such a situation, you should understand Parag's mental state. He would want to keep him even closer and very close to his heart. There is a sense of fear and longing at the same time. People might think it's strange, but since I know them closely, I understood his psychology.
Moreover, their pet has grown old and cannot see properly. So, Parag's responsibility towards him increases even more.'
The Vighnaharta Ganesh actor also mentioned that the pet seemed to sense Shefali's absence.
'Dogs are very sensitive—they can feel when something is wrong. The pet also knew that Shefali is no more. He was visibly sad and affected by her passing.'
A video of Parag Tyagi taking his dog for a walk just hours after Shefali Jariwala's passing rapidly spread across social media. The footage drew heavy criticism from netizens, who questioned his behavior during such an emotionally delicate moment.
Shefali's close friends Rashami, Paras and others came out in Parag's defence. They slammed the trolls and people to show kindness and empathy during this difficult period.

Metro...In Dino actor Pranay Pachauri: OTT is more of an actor's medium; films feel more star-driven
Pranay Singh Pachauri Pranay Singh Pachauri, who has previously been seen in projects like The Kerala Story, Andhera, Very Parivarik (Seasons 1 and 2), and Chhal Kapat – The Deception, is now on the big screen with his latest film, Metro… In Dino, directed by Anurag Basu . In the anthology, he plays Rohan, a man who has always been in love with his college friend Jhinuk. 'But she married his best friend, who is no more. Since Rohan and Jhinuk have feelings for each other, they are caught in an awkward situation. It leaves them in a moral dilemma — whether to love or not,' he explains. For a character that complex, Pachauri believes a director with vision and sensitivity is key. Recalling the moment he was cast in the film, he shares, 'I went to meet Anurag (Basu) Da after he saw my audition. I was extremely nervous, thinking he wanted to re-audition me. I entered the office, and Anurag Da sat me down, looked at me for a minute, then suddenly laughed and said, 'Balle Balle, you're doing the film'. I was ecstatic and also confused, but he's such a warm and kind person. I feel lucky to have worked with him.' Pranay with director Anurag Basu Having worked across both OTT and film formats, he reflects on the creative differences between the two. 'OTT allows for more immersive storytelling and characters that stay with the audience. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Providers are furious: Internet access without a subscription!

These days, larger-than-life or action-heavy films seem to draw audiences for that cinematic experience,' he says. He adds, 'In my experience, OTT feels more creatively liberating. I've had the chance to play different characters across shows, which has helped me grow both as an actor and a person. Films still tend to be more star-driven, whereas OTT has become more of an actor's medium — and that's something I find exciting and challenging.'
