Mumbai: Actor Swara Bhasker is always brutally trolled the moment she opens her mouth to say something. But that doesn’t stop her from voicing her opinion. During a recent Twitter Spaces chat, she opened up about how trolls link every post of hers to her masturbation scene in ‘Veere Di Wedding’.
Swara took to Instagram to share an excerpt from her Twitter Spaces conversation. “Social media is a [virtual] public space like roads & restaurants are, but the public decency and basic social etiquette maintained offline are absent online. I can’t even post a photo of a flower without people linking it to masturbation or referencing ‘ungli’ (finger) after Veere Di Wedding came out.”
“It’s ugly and amounts to cyber sexual harassment but I feel very strongly about not succumbing to online bullying or limiting my presence online because of it. We cannot cede the virtual public space to hate, bigotry and bullying,” she added. She captioned her post, “Speak your truth. Stand your ground.”
