Actress-filmmaker Pooja Bhatt says she can't believe that designer Isha Mantry is no more.
The 27-year-old fashion designer, who was originally from Mumbai, collapsed allegedly due to a drug overdose at an Electronic Dance Music festival at Candolim beach in Goa late Monday and subsequently died at a local hospital, the Congress alleged on Tuesday.
Pooja is in shock. She tweeted:
Isha Mantry I can't believe you have left us so early. You with the dancing eyes & shy smile! Why my love? WHY?

- Pooja Bhatt (@PoojaB1972) December 31, 2014She also advised her followers on Twitter to leave the chemicals behind.
Stick to alcohol if you must guys! Smoke a damn joint! But for God's sake,leave the chemicals BEHIND. Life is too damn precious.

Amusing yourself to death ! Do u know that when Isha Mantri our designer dropped to the dance floor & died, the music did not stop? Tragic!
