Mumbai: After an old social media post of Aishwarya Rai’s sister-in-law Shrima Rai went viral on Reddit, netizens trolled her for throwing shade on the actress out of jealousy.
Some even slammed Shrima for using Aishwarya’s name to acquire a business deal. Others criticised her for sharing a good bond with Abhishek Bachchan’s sister Shweta Nanda and not with Aishwarya.
Shrima recently took to her Instagram handle to give it back to the trollers and set the record straight.
Her Instagram post titled ‘Facts’ read: “My birthday was November 21 and as usual flowers were sent. I thanked everyone with a shout out. Before I became a blogger/ content creator I was a banker in Wealth Management for several years. I have also been a Gladrags Mrs. India Globe 2009. Post 2017, I transitioned into blogging. I have NEVER tried to open any business with anyone’s name. I am clarifying things because these are facts. I have built an independent career as a content creator for years on my own and as a woman I find it in poor taste of anyone to try to tear that fact down. For this my husband, mother in law and parents can vouch for that. As a mother it is extremely important to me that facts are clear when my name is involved.”

When a user commented, “Not even a single pic she shares of Aishwarya or Aaradhya,” Shrima replied, “You can head over to her page to find all the images of her, and there you will find solely shots of them and not a single one of us. That should satisfy you.”

Shrima had recently shared a photo of a bouquet gifted to her by Shweta Bachchan Nanda, which fuelled speculation about her bitter relationship with Aishwarya.
