Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal are on a New Year vacation as are many Bollywood celebs who chose to unwind and celebrate New Years in exotic locales and destinations. Recently, Sonakshi shared a video after which she faced backlash from netizens. 

Zaheer and Sonakshi Sinha are in Australia where they also celebrated New Year's Eve. Their stunning video included fireworks on display. Many pointed out that the celebrations seemed to oppose Sonakshi's earlier stance on bursting firecrackers during Diwali for environmental reasons. 

For those unaware, during Diwali, Sinha voiced her concern over the environmental impact of firecrackers. She shared a picture of a polluted sku with a note that read, "This is what the air looks like. I want to ask all those people bursting crackers right now...are you stupid or what?"

Netizens comments

This statement has now invited a host of hypocrisy comments from netizens who compared it to her recent New Year's Eve celebrations. 

Netizens wrote comments such as, "How could she enjoy fireworks in Australia but condemn their use in India, where pollution levels are usually higher?" One user wrote, "For these celebs, crackers only cause pollution during Diwali, but on New Year, they release oxygen!"

Another asked, "Where's the air pollution lecture now?"

Sonakshi's fans reaction

Some netizens defended Sinha. They pointed out the difference in air quality between Australia and India as a reason for her actions. One supporter wrote, "After repeatedly pointing out that Sonakshi is in Australia, a place whose AQI India will never be able to achieve...Sonakshi is not wrong guys."
