    Replying to a senior journalist's tweet, who is not being able to get in touch with her mother for three days, actress Dia Mirza commented, "heartbreaking".

     
     

    A netizen tweeted: "Blackout in Kashmir means no one knows if their families are safe. Elsewhere in India: TikTok is teeming with desperate men asserting 'victory' by claiming they can now 'get girls' from Kashmir."

     

    Actress Swara Bhaskar replied to the tweet, saying: "Disgusting lack of decency and humanity."
