Actress Sushmita Sen, who has been the target of constant criticism and snark since IPL founder Lalit Modi announced their connection this week, provided the best response to the trolls on Sunday.
In her most recent Instagram picture, she wrote: “It’s sad to see exactly how miserable and unhappy the world around us is becoming, coupled with a peaceful shot of herself in an infinity pool.
“The so-called intellectuals with their eccentricities; the uneducated with their shoddy but occasionally entertaining rumors… The acquaintances I’ve never met and the friends I’ve never had are all offering their wonderful insights into my life and character while profiting from the “Gold Digger” moniker!! These geniuses, oh my! “wrote Sushmita Sen.
“I have always (famously) favoured Diamonds over Gold and dig deeper than Gold!! Yes, I still purchase them myself “A line of diamonds that the actor had promoted was said.
“I appreciate the unwavering support that my friends, family, and loved ones provide me. Please be assured that your Sush is just great because I have never lived by the sporadic borrowed light of acclaim. Essence totally centered in my being and my consciousness, I am the Sun “wrote Sushmita Sen.
She had expressed her gratitude for two articles on the subject in posts from earlier in the day.
In an excerpt from a magazine article, Sushmita Sen wrote on Twitter, “The former Miss Universe’s dating decisions remain continuously, and bizarrely, a source of public debate.”
She also shared a story with the headline “The Problematic Culture Of Calling Women Gold Diggers” in another tweet.
Since Lalit Modi revealed his involvement with the actor, Sushmita Sen and Lalit Modi have gained media attention.
In a post on Instagram, Mr. Modi also criticized internet trolls, writing, “Why is the media so consumed with making fun of me for allegedly tagging incorrectly. Can someone please explain? I suppose we are still in the Middle Ages, when two people couldn’t be friends, but magic could happen if the circumstances were right and the moment was right. Live your life, and let others live theirs.”
On Friday, Lalit Modi, the founding chairman of the Indian Premier League, revealed his relationship with the former Miss Universe. He further stated that “it is a new beginning” and that the two are not yet married.
