Deepshika expresses concern for Parag
Earlier, after Shefali's demise, Deepshikha Nagpal expressed concern for Parag Tyagi. While talking to IANS she said, 'It’s extremely shocking. I got the news this morning and I was just like… what? A heart attack? Why? What was troubling her? What happened? I have so many questions myself. I knew Parag and Shefali as a couple who always walked together in life. I know them both very well. They were an amazing couple — two beautiful human beings. Honestly, I don’t know what’s happening in the world… why we keep losing such pure souls. It’s deeply, deeply sad. All I can say is — may God bless her family, especially Parag. They were so madly in love. People always looked up to them as the ideal couple. I don’t know how he’s going to cope with this. May God give him all the strength he needs. And may Shefali’s soul rest in peace."
