Members of the film fraternity have condemned social media trolls against Anushka Sharma. While Priyanka Chopra says it's "horrible to see a supportive girlfriend being lynched for a game she just watched", Dia Mirza has called it "disgusting".
Anushka has been trolled unabashedly on social media for her presence at the match, ever since her rumoured beau and cricketer Virat Kohli walked back to the pavilion to begin the Indian slide to defeat at the India-Australia semi-final in Sydney on Thursday.
But film celebrities have come out in support of the actress.
Here's what they had to say.
Dia Mirza:
It's ok to be disappointed or critical. BUT these comments about Anushka are DOWNRIGHT disgusting.
