Veteran actress Neena Gupta recently faced severe criticism from a section of netizens over her outfit choice during her recent outing. The actress was severely trolled on social media for wearing shorts during her visit to legendary lyricist Gulzar's house in Mumbai.
For the unversed the actress paid a visit to Gulzar’s residence to gift him her recently launched book ‘Sach Kahun Toh’.
Donning in a floral co-ord shorts set with white shoes and sunglasses, Neena shared video of the same on her Instagram account, which, prompted netizens to comment on her attire.
And now in an interview with Etimes, Neena Gupta has opened up about getting trolled for her outfit choices. The actress responded with a befitting reply and asked if she should even bother about 2 to 4 people criticising her look. She said, “I fail to understand when anybody writes that I have been trolled for this. It's plain rubbish. What's the definition of 'trolling'? Doesn't it mean that several people are criticising you? Look at the amount of praises I've received. Should I really even bother about just 2 or 4 people?" When asked if she would like to say anything to her critics, Gupta said, “Why? Why should I give any importance to 2 to 4 people when they comprise of just a scanty per cent which is in contrast to those who've loved me for this?"
One social media user while criticising the actress, wrote, 'Gulzar sahab k pass aap gaye the wo time aapko saadi pehen kr jana chahiye tha...sorry....kyuki Gulzar sahab Gulzar sahab ha', while another took a dig at 'western culture'. 'Age ke hisab se chalo madam,' wrote another user. However, many netizens even appreciated her choice, actor Anil Kapoor wrote, 'Fab Neena…'.
