Talking about Abhinav Shukla, he had said, “Fraudsters are evolving faster than we do; they have a new trick up their sleeve each time. Even though I'm a public figure, I'm an introvert at heart, so I don't end up sharing too much online, but in such cases where people are impersonating you, no matter how careful one is, you end up getting trapped in these scams. All one can do is try to be vigilant and avoid sharing personal information online." Coming back to Kriti Kharbanda, the actress will next be seen in the film Risky Romeo. She was last seen in a web series, Rana Naidu 2. Stay tuned for more updates!
