Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar has been in news ever since its release. The grandeur of this Sanjay Leela Bhansali directorial, as the filmmaker makes his big web-series debut, and the performances by actresses and actors have been receiving a lot of love from industry insiders as well as audiences too. However, it is SLB’s niece Sharmin Segal who found herself at the receiving end of trolls as many of them were quite brutal while reviewing her acting chops. Coming in support of the actress, was her co-star Richa Chadha, who essayed the character of Lajjo.
During an interaction, Richa Chadha addressed the matter of Sharmin Segal getting trolled for her performance in Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar and she told Pinkvilla, “I think truthfully, it is the audience’s right. It’s the audience’s prerogative that you like the show, you dislike the show. You like a performance, you dislike a performance”. However, the actress also maintained that one needs to be mindful of the fact that it doesn’t hurt the actor. “But what happens today, I think in the era of social media, when people start trolling, making memes, doing all that, that’s a bit hurtful, I think, for anyone. We must never be unkind because it can happen to you tomorrow. And everyone is a human being,” she added.
In the past, Taha Shah Badussha, who essayed the role of Tajdar, who is in love with Sharmin’s character Alamzeb, also came in defence of the actress wherein he stated that her ‘method’ for acting ‘involves being subtle’.
