After Rhea Chakraborty was arrested by the Narcotics Bureau Control (NBC) on September 3 in connection to drugs which is linked with Sushant Singh Rajput. The actress was then moved to Byculla Jail and Rhea’s lawyer Satish Maneshinde filed for bail and the hearing of Rhea and Showik’s bail plea took place yesterday at Mumbai sessions court. Today, the verdict of Rhea Chakraborty and Showik’s bail plea was heard and it is been rejected by the court. However, before the verdict was out, a few Bollywood personalities took to their social media accounts and showed their support to Rhea by saying that she should be released.
Amongst many, Ranveer Singh starrer '83 actor Saqib Saleem also shared a post on Rhea while demanding for release. Nevertheless, the post didn't work in favour of certain Rhea haters who then showered the actor with some cuss words. Sharing the picture of a naysayer who sent some nasty messages in his DM, the actor sarcastically said 'Thank you for showering so much love.' While sharing the screenshot of his DM, he wrote, "Mera Bharat Mahaan Thank you for showering so much love on me n my family. Means a lot" After the post was shared, some were appalled and disgusted with the kind of words people are using and spreading hatred.
We saw a comment from Shibani Dandekar who is a good friend of Rhea, she said, "WOW! I have no words for what we have become" While Sohpie Chaudhary is disgusted as she wrote, "This is frikkin disgusting!! How dare he speak about your family like this, especially the women in the family!!! Hope he knows he can be arrested for this blatant threat and harassment!"
After he showed support to Rhea, Saleem later shared another post where he clearly mentioned that people supporting Rhea doesn't mean that they are disrespecting Sushant, undermining his right to get justice or to stop the investigation, they are standing against media trials, upholding the fact like everyone else Rhea deserves a fair trial. Despite sending across a clarification note, the actor still received hatred from some certain people.
