On Tuesday, actress Shilpa Shetty Kundra celebrated India's 74th Independence Day with her family members. She hoisted the national flag with pride, and shared a glimpse of the celebration on her official social media accounts.
Unfortunately, she was brutally trolled for wearing shoes while hoisting the flag. Netizens were quick to post messages such as "It would have been better to take off the shoes and raise the flag" and "Chappal jute to uthaar dete".
Shilpa was not in the mood to ignore the trolls, and she gave them a befitting reply. She wrote in the comments section, "I am aware of the rules of conduct while hoisting the flag. The respect for my country and the flag stems from my heart and not up for questioning. I am a proud Indian. Today's post was to share and celebrate that emotion. To all the trollers, I do not appreciate you airing your ignorance and spreading negativity on this day. So get your facts right and please back off."
The video also featured her husband Raj Kundra, her mother and son Viaan Raj Kundra. They were seen singing the national anthem with great enthusiasm. From Kajol to Sidharth Malhotra, many other celebrities also changed their display pictures to the tricolor on this day.
Shilpa Shetty Kundra's celebration of Independence Day and her response to the trolls was a reminder of the immense respect Indians have for their country and its flag. We must never forget the sacrifices made by our freedom fighters in the past, so that we can be independent and celebrate this day with joy.
