With celebrities to sports personalities all condemning the terrorist attack, there was a lot of expectation from tennis star Sania Mirza who hadn’t posted anything about the attack. However, when she did put up a post about the same, she got brutally trolled.
Sania had been getting hate messages on social media once the incident took place on 14 February. The reason being she is married to Pakistan cricketer Shoaib Malik.
When Sania tried to get back at her troll s with her latest post, it backfired on her. Many felt that even after putting up such a long post, she nowhere mentioned Pakistan.
Sania post read, “This post is for those people who think that as celebrities we need to ‘condemn’ an attack, tweet, and Instagram and be all over social media to prove that we are patriotic and care about our country.. why?? Cause we are celebs and some of you are frustrated individuals who have nowhere else to target your anger towards and grab every opportunity to spread more hate?? Mirza said in a lengthy post on Twitter.
The Pulwama attack is considered to the deadliest terrorist strike in three decades in Jammu and Kashmir. An explosive-laden SUV rammed into one of the buses in the CRPF convoy killing 40.
