It is a time of sorrow for the family of YouTuber Danish Zehen, who died just days ago in a car crash in Vashi. Instead of helping them to process their grief and pray for his departed soul, just a day after the funeral, two maulanas visited the family and denounced the youth's lifestyle. Shockingly, the priests asked Danish's mother to upload a video on his social media accounts, to warn other youths against following his path.

Already devastated by Danish's sudden death, his family is now reeling under an onslaught of hate on social media for the Internet sensation. At the time of his death, Danish had 1.2 million followers on Instagram and over 3.7 lakh subscribers on YouTube. He was also a contestant on the reality TV series Ace Of Space. However, several Internet trolls posted comments stating that Danish's career choice was against Islam, as it involved singing, dancing and performing in public.
