MUMBAI: Politician and actress Sonali Phogat made a lot of headlines when she appeared in the popular and controversial reality show Bigg Boss.
The Bigg Boss 14 contestant was recently seen in a music video where she looked completely different. The actress, who has undergone a drastic transformation after coming out of the reality show, left everyone surprised with her new avatar in the song.
However, Sonali got massively trolled for dressing up in western outfits and dancing in the music video and also had to face comments on marital status and age shaming her. In an interview with ETimes TV, Sonali shared that there were many haters who asked her to act her age, but she has a special message for them 'jalti hai duniya jalane waala chahiye'. She said, “I have tried new looks in the song as per the director's requirement. I am seen in western avatar and as you have seen in Bigg Boss house also I enjoyed being dressed in fashionable outfits and look presentable. But there are people who keep commenting and they say ‘iss age mein aap ko Shobha nahi deta iss tarah ke kapde (they try to tell me to act as per my age). I really don’t care about their comments because the people who love me are more as compared to the haters. Log toh kahenge logon ka kaam hai kehna.”

Further, Sonali spoke about the trolls. "I would like to say to the haters Jalti hai duniya jalane waala chahiye. This song goes for me because I keep trying new things and there are a few people who like trolling me. When I did the music video, I had this thought that people who trolled me when I was inside BB 14 or when I came out of the show would be once again at it. They abused me and age shamed me after the song was released. I don’t understand that if I have aged, does that mean I can’t work in the industry. I don’t have an answer for this. I have not seen such comments on my page particularly, but when I see other social media accounts sharing my song or pictures, I find these comments there. There are so many negative comments and I don’t understand how anyone can write such nasty stuff. But then I don’t react to it because I know they don’t know me completely and have only seen me in the Bigg Boss house. So I concentrate on the love that I get from my fans."
