#Rewind2021: Tollywood celebs who gave it back to trolls like a true boss

Working in the glamour world – that’s all about good looks and toned bodies is not exactly as easy as it looks from the outside. In fact, Body shaming and trolling are now dark realities no one can escape from, especially online. On several occasions, celebs have fought back with classy replies that have schooled these online haters. Be it Paoli Dam, Sreelekha Mitra, Swastika Mukherjee or Ritabhari Chakraborty; everyone has raised their voice against online trolls and the year 2021 wasn’t any different.

2/7

Swastika Mukherjee

Many of her tweets, social media posts have received backlash. So, what’s her take on trolls? Swastika Mukherjee, one of the finest actors in Tollywood, says that’s “nothing new” and also such things “won’t stop” her from speaking her mind. While trolling and criticism will always shadow you if there’s public presence, Swastika is not that person who takes it lying down. Be it slamming haters or shutting down trolls, the versatile actress has carved a niche for herself and this year wasn’t different. From taking a dig at those who tried to troll her daughter, making a stand against body shaming to protecting her personal life – the firebrand actress was at her best.

3/7

Sreelekha Mitra

The ‘Nirbhaya’ actress has always been vocal on social issues and has never shied away from expressing her views. Even when her pictures and videos became victim of body shaming Sreelekha didn’t stop, instead, she continued to share snippets from her workout, photoshoot and moments with her furry friends. She brilliantly clapped back against body shaming and reminded us of why we should love our bodies.

4/7

Nusrat Jahan

Nusrat is quite enjoying her duties as new mom. However, she is not keeping her fans in the dark. Nusrat’s Instagram timeline is flooded with her pictures and these posts come with quirky captions, philosophical views of life or simply the state of mind she is right now in. But, one thing has remained constant. She has been the target of trolls ever since her pregnancy news came out and the online abuse continues to hurt her in every way possible. The popular actor has decided to talk less amid the ongoing controversy. She is rather speaking through her social media posts and stories almost regularly, and these posts are taking the internet by storm.

While some have praised Nusrat Jahan for his brave step, many have trolled her. Trolls have been asking her to reveal the baby's father's name and at the same time, many of her fans have praised her natural beauty.

5/7

Ritabhari Chakraborty

The actress had to bite the bitter pill as she gained a few kilos after two surgeries. Ritabhari believes the definition of beauty has changed over the years. It’s our popular culture that dictates how womanly beauty has to be perceived. But she has one question. Why will a woman’s beauty be defined by her body? There’s always more to her. She says the general idea that you have to be fair and young to look good in someone’s eyes is simply pitiful. Ritabhari’s body went through a lot, as she had two surgeries and she believes she should be kind to her body to stay alive. How people will look at her can’t define her priorities in life.

6/7

Srabanti Chatterjee

She doesn’t even shy away from admitting that she’s the favourite child of controversy. Trolls often take a keen interest in her personal life, which has seen so many ups and downs over the years. But despite all these, Srabanti keeps her spirits high and faith alive and this year wasn’t different. Whenever she faced criticism on her solo trips, pictures shared or separation with Roshan Singh, Srabanti has kept her cool and concentrating more on her own life.

7/7

Subhashree Ganguly

Ever since Subhashree gave birth to Yuvaan she has been trolled and the reason is she gained weight after her delivery and now people are trolling her because she has lost weight. However, the actress simply doesn’t care. She in fact says if people are sick and have all the time to engage in all these negativities, they are welcome to do so since she is a positive person by nature. Subhashree doesn’t even read those negative remarks.
