Stars are known to prefer the medium of Twitter to express their grievances on various issues. Telecom companies are often at the receiving end from the celebrities, for service issues mainly and also for billing-related difficulties.
Meanwhile, Kamya was in the news earlier in the year for her marriage to Shalabh Dang. She has also changed her name on social media platforms to Kamya Shalabh Dang. Known for her work in shows like Bigg Boss and Astitva...Ek Prem Kahani for close to two decades, she is currently seen in the show Shakti: Astitva Ek Ehsaan Ki, though currently all shootings have been halted due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
