Swara Bhasker Says She Cannot Even Post A Photo Of Flower Without People Linking It To Masturbation Scene From Veere Di Wedding
During a recent Twitter Spaces chat, Swara Bhasker spoke about how trolls link every post of hers to her masturbation scene from Veere Di Wedding.
Actress Swara Bhasker is known to not mince words. The actress has never shied away from expressing her views on social media. Recently, during her Twitter Spaces chat, Swara opened up about how trolls link every social media post of hers on social media to her infamous masturbation scene from her movie ‘Veere Di Wedding.’ She also mentioned that although she gets nasty comments online, some of which are akin to ‘cyber sexual harassment', she refuses to succumb to it.
Taking to Instagram, Swara shared an excerpt from her Twitter Spaces conversation. The post read, “Social media is a [virtual] public space like roads & restaurants are, but the public decency and basic social etiquette maintained offline are absent online. I can’t even post a photo of a flower without people linking it to masturbation or referencing ‘ungli’ (finger) after Veere Di Wedding came out.”
She added, “It’s ugly and amounts to cyber sexual harassment but I feel very strongly about not succumbing to online bullying or limiting my presence online because of it. We cannot cede the virtual public space to hate, bigotry and bullying.”
In her caption, she added, “Speak your truth. Stand your ground.”

Earlier this year, on the occasion of Veere Di Wedding’s three-year anniversary, Swara Bhasker gave a befitting reply to trolls saying that her masturbation scene in the film provided her with employment. The actress had written, “3 YEARS (June 01) to the birth of an obsession - my nafrati chintus obsession with my fingers! Happy 3rd to the film that gave rise to an economy: the two rupees per tweet employment guarantee scheme that it seems I launched for my trolls #veerediwedding #sakshislays.”
On the professional front, Swara Bhasker will next be seen in a short film titled 'Sheer Qorma' alongside Divya Dutta and Shabana Azmi.
