Hyderabad: Following a viral video from singer AP Dhillon’s recent Mumbai concert, actor Tara Sutaria and her partner, Veer Pahariya, have hit back at online rumours and vitriol. After footage surfaced of Tara’s brief onstage interaction with the Punjabi singer, several commenters questioned her behaviour, claiming Veer appeared “uncomfortable” while watching from the audience.
Tara and Veer attended the concert as guests of AP Dhillon.1 During the performance, Dhillon welcomed Tara—dressed in all black—onto the stage as a special guest. The two shared a warm embrace and a brief peck on the cheek before dancing to his hit tracks.2 While many fans celebrated the moment, some social media users began circulating manipulated videos alleging that Veer was distressed by the exchange.
As some users sympathised with Veer, others criticised Tara for what they deemed “unacceptable behaviour.” Tara Sutaria broke her silence by addressing the controversy directly on Instagram. Sharing a video from the night, she wrote:
“@apdhillon FAV!!! Loud and proud and in it together!!! What a night! Mumbai, thank you so much for loving our song. Let’s make more music and moments together. PS: We won’t be shaken by false narratives, ‘clever editing,’ or expensive PR operations! Love and truth always prevail. The joke is on the bullies.”
Melanie Watson Bernhardt, a famous actress from the popular television series “Diff’rent Strokes,” passed away at aged 57, as TMZ reported.
Melanie’s brother, Robert Watson, reportedly told the outlet that Melanie passed away in Colorado Springs.
Melanie, who was born with osteogenesis imperfecta, a condition that causes bones to break readily, was reportedly admitted to the hospital after experiencing some bleeding problems, where she deteriorated.
Robert claims that although the physicians tried their hardest to help her, she was actually lucky to survive as long as she did despite her illness. He continues by saying that he will always have a lot of thoughts about his sister.
Melanie played Kathy Gordon in four of the 189 episodes of “Diff’rent Strokes,” a role that fans of vintage sitcoms will recall.
She and Gary Coleman’s chracter, Arnold, got into a heated argument when he attempted to persuade her to walk without crutches in an episode from 1982 that was named after her role.
After “Diff’rent Strokes” ended, Bernhardt retireed from acting. From 1994 to 1996, he married Roger Bernhardt.
According to reports, she was founding member of the nonprofit organization Train Rite, which helps properly train dogs for use as support animals.
Veer Pahariya also intervened to clarify the situation. Commenting on her post, he pointed out that the viral footage was deceptive. “Not to mention the reaction footage of me was taken during another song, not even Thodi Si Daru. Jokers,” Veer wrote.
By explaining that the viral clip was a “Frankenstein” edit—piecing together reactions from different parts of the show—the couple effectively dispelled rumours of tension or discomfort.
