Everyone is aware of the role of a paparazzi (or a photographer) in bringing the latest celebrity video or a picture. While there are pros to it, there are also cons attached. With social media's rise in today's day and age, many well-known photographers have their verified accounts on Twitter or Instagram where they publish their exclusive content.

In one such instance, a well-known photographer released late actor Sushant Singh Rajput's 'last journey' video where his mortal remains were taken from the hospital to the crematorium. But the photographer in his caption wrote, "Please note my images and videos cannot be posted on any platforms without my written consent."

Reacting to this, Deepika Padukone commented, "Right. But it is OK for you to take this video and not only post it but also probably monetise it without his or his family's written consent?". Deepika's comment was lauded by many and fans thanked her for raising the issue.
