Staff correspondent, August 4, 2015, NewsCrunch
Actress Sonam Kapoor was trolled heavily on Tuesday after she came out strongly against the short-lived porn ban in he country.
The Government of India, which placed an informal ban on porn on Saturday rolled it back on Tuesday evening, but not before it faced a barrage of criticism on the issue.
While the usually talkative Bollywood celebs kept mum on the issue, with the exception of RGV, Sonam Kapoor, came with both her swords swinging.
Ban idiots who think banning things is going to make a difference to Indian mentality.. #sooverthisgovt#NextBanIdea#sick#ashamed— Sonam Kapoor (@sonamakapoor) August 3, 2015Banning things was not going to make any difference to Indian mentality she tweeted, adding that the 'idiots' who banned should be banned.
She also tagged her tweet with a few provocative hashtags - #ashamed, #sick, #nextbanidea.
For staunch supporters of the government and porn ban, this amounted to double blasphemy. She had not only called the pro-ban elements idiots, but had also used used the most outrageous hashtags.
So, over the last 24 hours, trolls have been at work, haunting her, ofering advise, criticism and abuse. Here is a sample:
