Sara Ali trolled mercilessly
The protests against the systemic institutionalized racism in the USA have observed several Hollywood stars pouring out to aid the cause of putting a finish to racial discrimination.
Never to stay behind, Bollywood too jumped in on the bandwagon, supporting the Black Lives Matter movement across social media. However, most of them were soon criticized for 'supporting' civil issues in the US despite maintaining staunch silence on similar discriminations faced by Muslims, Dalits and migrant personnel in their own motherland.
The most recent to come under an attack, although even unfortunate, is actress Sara Ali Khan. In the wake of the unceremonious death of a pregnant elephant in Kerala, the 'Simmba' actress took to Instagram to share her thoughts.
Her post showed an illustration of several hands of assorted skin-colors along with a trunk of an elephant. On the illustration was the copy, 'All Lives Matter', although striking out the term 'Black' in the initial copy.
The post didn't decrease well with a portion of what seem to be overly politically conscious netizens who questioned the 'tone-deaf and privileged' actress' education from Columbia University.
