Birthday Special: Devoleena Bhattacharjee’s Retaliation Against Trolls

Today marks Devoleena Bhattacharjee’s 38th birthday. She gained notoriety for playing Gopi Bahu in the Star Plus television series Saath Nibhaana Saathiya. She rose to become one of the most adored TV actresses as a result of the show’s enormous success. Devoleena, an Assamese-Bengali artist and skilled Bharatnatyam dancer, started her career as a jewelry designer before moving into performing.

Let’s look at some of the debates that have surrounded her life and career as she turns 38. Devoleena, a strong and independent lady, shocked everyone last year by announcing her intention to marry her longtime lover and gym trainer, Shahnawaz Sheikh, in December 2022. A number of individuals began making fun of her for marrying a Muslim guy instead of sending her blessings and congratulations. As if that weren’t enough, someone also brought up the possibility of her having children.

Devoleena responded to her haters in a suitable manner. In one of her responses, she asked, “Will my children be Hindus or Muslims, aap Kaun? And if it is true that there are many ashrams, apko baccho ko lekar chinta ho hi rahi hai, jaaiye adopt kijiye and apne hisaab se dharm or naam decide kijiye. Just rules, just pati, just baccha, just dharm. How are you? (If you all care so much about kids, adopt a child from an orphanage and raise them in accordance with your favorite religion and name. My spouse, my child, my faith, and my standards. Describe yourself.

The harassment of Devoleena Bhattacharjee did not end here. A troll criticized her earlier this year by using the phrase “Love Jihad” while once again emphasizing her love story. Was #DevoleenaBhattacharjee called, the user tweeted. She contributed to this movie. ‘Her husband’s name is Shahnawaz Shaikh,’ according to Wikipedia. Perhaps you are unsure. Jihad is like that in love.

Devoleena Bhattacharjee graciously responded to the offensive tweet by saying that she and her husband had previously seen the movie and really enjoyed it. She continued by saying that Shahnawaz is a “true Indian Muslim” who has the courage to point out any “wrongdoing.”
