In the aftermath of the horrifying Sonam Raghuvanshi murder case, where a woman allegedly murdered her husband, Bageshwar Dham’s Dhirendra Shastri voiced his thoughts on the disturbing trend. His remarks have sparked both laughter and debate on social media.
“Neele Drum Wali Khatarnak Deviyaan”
Shastri, while addressing a gathering, didn’t mince words. Referring to a series of high-profile murders allegedly committed by wives, including the infamous Meerut case where Muskan Rastogi reportedly chopped her husband’s body and stored the parts in a blue drum, he said,
“Abhi Bharat mein to patniyo ka bada trend chal raha…. (This era is all about wives.)”

He continued, “Ek se ek neele drum wali khatarnak deviyaan nikal rahi hain…Tumne suna nahi Bharat ki news?”
(One after another, dangerous goddesses with blue drums are emerging… Haven’t you heard the news trending in Bharat?)
Bachelors Living in Fear?
Mentioning the chilling details of the Sonam case, he added, “Abhi kal nayi khabar aayi…Sonam! Dekho to tum kahaniyaan! Humare jaise avivahit purush darne lage hain…”
(Just yesterday, another news story—Sonam! Just look at these stories. Bachelors like us have started getting scared now.)
He humorously questioned the institution of marriage itself, saying, “Pehle lagta tha arrange marriage sahi hai, phir lagta tha ki love marriage sahi hai, ab dono hi bekar lag rahe hain. Jab se ye Raja wala kand suna hai. Bada bekaar hai…”
(Earlier, we thought arranged marriage is better. Then love marriage seemed favourable. But now, after knowing Raja’s case, marriage itself seems useless!)
His statements triggered laughter among his listeners, many of whom echoed his sentiments amid growing concern over such cases.
Social Media Responds
Shastri’s comments have quickly gone viral, adding fuel to the social media fire already ablaze with sarcastic reels and memes criticizing Sonam Raghuvanshi’s alleged actions. Many users have pointed out the psychological impact such cases are having on men, especially bachelors.
