Actor Tillotama Shome, who won plaudits last year for her film Sir, has relayed a hate comment that she received on social media, but wondered how it could be considered an insult. Taking to Twitter on Tuesday, she wrote, “A hater on social media called me a ‘flop actress who looks likes a maid’. Now how is that even mildly insulting, given my situation!?” She added the hashtag, ‘Dignity of labour’. Actor Pooja Bhatt rose to her friend's defence. She wrote in a tweet, “You are a star in the real sense..one whose light will illuminate the world through the work that you have done & the lives you have touched long after you have gone. Haters are akin to ‘dark matter’. They provide the gas & ensure the ones that provide light, remain bound.”
