As Taylor Swift says ‘Haters Gonna Hate’, social media is not for you if you can’t handle criticism. However, if one’s followers go overboard and are being trolling for the slightest of things, there is no stopping. Although celebrities use this platform to interact with their fans and vice versa, sharing intimate moments can have followers gushing over them.
From television, film to sports or politics, every well-known persona has faced some form of lashing on social media. This time the locked target was FIR star Kavita Kaushik.
The actress who dons a stunning bod was recently slut-shamed for her bikini pictures on various occasions. While Kavita deals with it in her own style, she shared her take with Hindustan Times.
She expressed how the negativity prevailed in not only her bikini pictures but also when she was fully clothed. She said “I used to think maybe the reactions were because I posed in shorts, in a bikini or maybe in a tight T-shirt, but I got cheap comments even when I was wearing salwar kameez and was covered from head to toe. I am very comfortable with my body, so I don’t mind posing while doing yoga or in a bikini and posting these pictures on social media. But my husband is not from the film fraternity and he gets affected by such obscene comments, and that is not okay with me.”
She made sure that she was heard and also suggested the length she would go to if needed to expose those engaging in online harassment. “I want to tell the people who make such trashy comments to stop making such comments or I will expose them and even file a police complaint. The world has changed and women need not be afraid anymore. I want to tell all the girls out there to make social media their strength, as it’s an amazing medium. There are a few people who are ruining this medium for others for their profit or perversion. Let’s not let them do that. Let’s expose them,” she added.
