She wrote, “Is it necessary for media and paparazzi to cover someone’s funeral? A funeral; is a very personal affair and media should let people mourn in peace without a camera flashing in their faces! It’s disturbing to see videos of such a sensitive event with photographers talking casually in the background.”
