Sushant Singh Rajput’s tragic demise seems to have sent shockwaves in the television industry, as many artists have mourned the actor’s loss on social media platforms. Recently, television actor Karan Patel shared a black picture on Instagram and slammed netizens for just jumping on the ‘Be kind to the depressed’ bandwagon on social media. Karan Patel asked people to stop their ‘drama’, as it is ‘more painful than someone’s death’.

Furthermore, Karan Patel remarked that false hope is the biggest trigger of depression, which social media users are giving to the ones in need of it. The actor asked fans to ‘think ten times’ before committing to help someone in need. Take a look at what the actor wrote:

"My question for everyone who suddenly, through their social media posts, find the need to let the world know that they are available to talk in case someone is facing depression. Was someone’s suicide needed for you to let others know that you are there for them? How come no one offers their shoulder to ppl suffering from depression until a victim of the same decides to end his/her life? Where are these so-called supportive people on a normal day to day basis? Why don’t you put up a similar ‘reaching out to’ post on a weekly basis so that people actually know that you genuinely want to be there for the depressed souls and not just follow the trend that happens whenever someone takes their own life. So stop this pretence of wanting to be there for the world."
