Sonakshi Sinha furious again on being trolled on social media

Many of the Bollywood celebrities are being trolled and bullied on social media. Sonakshi Sinha is one of them. She has earlier spoke against cyber bullying and online trolling. She was so much against these things that she even deactivated her Twitter account a couple of months back. And since then she has been associated with many campaigns scourging the cyber world. In a recent interview she spoke on social media trolling once again and said people are mistaking freedom of speech for freedom to disrespect and abuse and also are misusing democracy this way.

The Dabangg actress said; “People feel that by just hiding behind the screen they are anonymous and can say whatever they want to, and in whichever way they want. Definitely, democracy has been misused when it comes to social media and online harassment. People are really taking freedom of speech for granted and mistaking it for freedom to abuse – to which they don’t have a right. That’s why we are trying to create some awareness and what actions can be taken against those who perpetrate it,”

She continued; “Yes, I was trolled and bullied even for taking a stand against bullying. People without thinking of anything just go out there and vent their frustration. Especially during the lockdown as people have less to do which is why a lot more negativity and hate are coming out online. Initial thoughts are that it is battle but it’s definitely one that needs to begin and we need to fight back,” added the actress.

She had quit Twitter 2 months back, followed by a message on Instagram, which read: “The first step to protecting your sanity is to stay away from negativity. And nowhere more of that than Twitter these days! Chalo, I’m off – deactivating my account. Bye guys, peace out.”

Well we think she had some valid points. What’s your say on that?
