Social media has given us access to many things, including hate & trolling. It’s disheartening & scary to see people saying such offensive things sitting behind their phone screens. 

Bollywood celebs have been subject to that hate, and sometimes they didn’t even deserve it. Can we think twice before throwing hate at someone’s daughter? Can we let a woman wear what she wants? Can we be mindful of the opinions we share on social media?

Case in point: Here is a list of incidents when Bollywood celebrities didn’t deserve the hate they received:

1. When influencer and copywriter Freddy Birdy made sexist remarks on Deepika Padukone’s outfit. For the last time, belittling a woman’s career to her husband, clothes or body is not funny!

2. No. Mandira Bedi performing the last rites of her husband is not ‘unsanskaari’ and definitely not a place to poke your nose. She didn’t deserve this hate while she was grieving the loss of her husband.

3. When Priyanka Chopra was judged to upload a picture that according to haters, was unsanskaari. I mean, how could a woman share a PDA moment on social media, right?

4. When Shahrukh Khan was trolled for wearing sunglasses for Dilip Kumar’s funeral. What on earth are you smoking? To come up with so much hate?

5. Malaika Arora is subjected to hate for various reasons, including finding love in the ’40s (because how could she be happy right?). And recently, a news website decided to write the most disgusting headline about her clothes.

6. When Farhan Akhtar was trolled for celebrating Dhanteras with his girlfriend Shibani Dandekar and his business partner Ritesh Sidhwani.

7. When Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao announced their divorce, people thought it was a subject to spread hate. Here’s an example of how low people can stoop:

8. When Virat & Anushka’s 10-month-old daughter received rape threats because India lost to New Zealand. This vicious hatred needs to stop right away!
