Bollywood actress and former Miss Universe Lara Dutta recently opened up about facing derogatory remarks on social media. The actress confessed that she hasn’t been immune to trolls; however, she chooses not to pay much heed to them and advocates for a more compassionate and understanding approach towards others.
In an interview with Pinkvilla, when the actress was asked about dealing with online trolls and negativity, she shared, “See, on a personal level, I think for me, I don’t have a massive social media presence. My social media presence… I am there, but I am there as much as I want to be. If I am going to be hungry for followers, for comments, and for things like that, then I also have to be ready to take everything that comes along with it.”
She added, “So my social media feed is really things that to me are special that I really do want to share with people that are genuinely following me. So, I don’t have a massive following, but the ones that are there are authentically genuine people who want to be there. And if there are those kinds of people, they are not there to pull you down.”
On a closing note, she added, “I think I am blessed. I don’t deal with a lot of trolls, nasty comments, or things like that. I mean, of course, people will have…it’s their right to have an opinion, you know, and they will say something to you. A lot of people say ‘arrey buddhi ho gayi’, ‘arrey moti ho gayi’. Is it really going to make a difference in my life? It doesn’t. I also know that there are anonymous people behind handles. I don’t know what someone like that is going through in their life. So, I can’t be judgmental about someone else either. It’s fine.”
Lara Dutta recently left her fans intrigued and excited as she shared a tantalising teaser of her upcoming OTT project, Ranneeti: Balakot & Beyond. In the 20-second clip, the atmosphere is charged with suspense from the very beginning. The teaser opens with a powerful blast amidst the mountains, where two cars collide. Amidst the gripping visuals, the teaser also showcases fighter planes soaring through the skies in formation. The ending sets the scene for a story that goes beyond the obvious and delves into significant events.
Interestingly, Lara herself wasn’t featured in the teaser, keeping the audience intrigued about her role. The series also features Jimmy Shergill, Ashutosh Rana, and Elnaaz Norouzi in lead roles. The show releases today.
On the professional front, apart from Santosh Singh’s Ranneeti: Balakot & Beyond, Lara Dutta will also be seen in Avishek Ghosh’s Suryast, where she’ll be sharing the frame with the actress Patralekhaa Paul. The story revolves around the intricate tale of two women who entangle themselves in an elaborate mind game of cat and mouse.
