Congress leader Vijay Wadettiwar said the Mangeshkar family is a blot on humanity and a gang of looters, adding, "Have you ever heard of them donating for social good?". His remarks followed the death of a pregnant woman who was allegedly denied admission to Pune’s Deenanath Mangeshkar Hospital. The hospital is named after singer Deenanath Mangeshkar, father of Lata Mangeshkar.
