New Delhi:

Entrepreneur and Shark Tank India judge Vineeta Singh has come out to refute the ongoing rumors surrounding her death. On Saturday, she took to social media to address the false claims that had been circulating for weeks.

In a post on X, the Sugar Cosmetics CEO shared a screenshot of a misleading report titled “A tough day in India: We say goodbye to Vinita Singh.”

She refuted the claims and stressed that such false reports had been circulating for the past five weeks. Despite her efforts to combat the spread of misinformation, including filing a complaint with the Mumbai Crime Branch and reporting to Meta (formerly Facebook) and the Mumbai Cyber ​​Police, the rumors persisted.

“I have been dealing with paid PR about my death and arrest for 5 weeks. Ignored it at first, then reported it to @Meta multiple times, filed a complaint with @Mum_CyberPolice but it hasn’t stopped. The most difficult Partly when people panic and call my mom. Any advice?” Vinita Singh wrote in her tweet.
