Sharmin opens up about receiving criticism and hatred from the public

In just a few months, Sharmin has received a lot of hate and trolling that is now focused beyond her portrayal of Alamzeb. Reflecting on this, Segal commented, “I think it’s unfair to judge or label someone as bad, rude or disrespectful without knowing them. I think it’s unfair and it bothers me in some ways. To me, a comments section can’t define a person as good or bad because those people don’t know me. She added: “Things were taken out of context (from previous interviews). It’s also been a learning experience for me, because now I feel like I have a better understanding of how I react to situations and how sometimes the world doesn’t move. I don’t exactly like you for who you are. I don’t know if it’s a good or bad thing at this point, but I just think 10 times before I say things, I know I can’t obsess. because I can’t let this define me. » Nia Sharma, Jannat Zubair and Reem Shaikh Join the Alamzeb Trend With Playful Instagram Video Teasing Heeramandi Actress Sharmin Segal – WATCH.

Sharmin didn’t even step back to appreciate her co-actors. She said in the interview: “I see that my co-stars are brave people who come out and talk about my support. It’s humbling to know that this is how they feel about me. Some of them have also contacted me personally, but to intervene in my place on public platforms, I just want to go hug them. She further explained, “I’m very grateful to my co-stars for being able to take this step and do it because what happens is things are taken out of context to the point where they’re trying to made to seem like someone who was disrespectful to my co-stars, or arrogant, or rude, which is not the equation I shared with any of them.”

Sharmin recalls an interview in which she jokingly referred to Aditi Rao Hydari as a ‘schoolgirl’ in what was supposed to be a light roast. However, media reports focused on Richa’s response, describing it as trolling and roasting. Sharmin felt this misrepresented their banter, highlighting her close friendship with Aditi. She admitted that the interview could have been less intense, but lamented the distortion of the context of her remark. The incident highlighted the challenge of maintaining humor in public exchanges without it being misinterpreted.
