Celebrities have gotten used to being under the constant hawk like gaze of trolls. Parineeti Chopra remained no stranger when she uploaded an adorable picture with a Koala from her recent tour in Australia. While the picture seemed absolutely harmless to me, some sleezy men found a way to turn this into an objectification riot with comments like “What is he trying to press,” “Betaa hatha sahi jagah lagaya kr” and “what a hand grip”.
Not just that, apparently her post was also an open invitation for them to skinny-shame her, saying she looked better before and my personal favourite – “plastic surgery ki dukan”. As a person with a public account, I can’t imagine how these comments do any good to the world. But they exist and are constantly becoming a part of our daily lives. Do we want to be known as the generation of internet trolls? I’m afraid so.
And as far as the picture is concerned, Parineeti we hope you never stop sharing your cute AF moments with us.
