Not just Chetan Bhagat and Shashi Tharoor got trolled for supporting Supreme Court's decision to ban the sale of firecrackers, Neena Gupta's daughter Masaba also got trolled for retweeting in support of the ban. The talented fashion designer was trolled and shamed for her stand and how!
But just like her bold fashion clothing line, Masaba had a cracker of a reply to all those who name shamed her on social media and called her 'bastard child' or 'illegitimate West Indian'.

Sonam Kapoor who is often seen dressed in Masaba creations also tweeted in support of her and wrote on Twiiter, "Love you Masab...you make us all damm proud."
