Esha
Gupta
had
recently
taken
to
her
social
media
handle
to
share
some
risque
pictures
of
herself.
A
few
of
them
featured
her
sunbathing
topless
in
a
balcony
with
her
back
towards
the
camera.
The
actress
who
often
founds
herself
getting
trolled
and
slut-shamed
for
posting
sultry
photos,
once
again
had
to
deal
with
some
offensive
comments.
In
an
interaction
with
Hindustan
Times,
the
Baadshaho
actress
opened
up
on
receiving
flak
for
sharing
her
bold
photos.
Esha
called
out
the
hypocrisy
displayed
by
the
trolls
and
questioned
why
male
actors
are
never
asked
to
cover
up
when
they
post
shirtless
pictures
of
themselves
on
social
media.
"It's
gender
bias.
So
many
male
actors
out
there
are
putting
up
shirtless
pictures.
Why
not
ask
them
to
cover
up?
People
look
at
them
and
go,
'Waah
bhai,
kya
body
hai!'" Gupta
tells
us.
She
expresses
her
exasperation
over
people
who
hold
women
responsible
for
promoting
rape
with
their
outfit
choices:
"It's
their
mentality
that
has
to
be
blamed.
A
woman's
clothes
making
people
think
about
rape
is
problematic,"
the
actress
told
the
tabloid.
Esha
said
that
she
has
now
become
matured
to
the
level
that
she
doesn't
bother
to
give
attention
to
the
trolls.
The
actress
said,
"I've
become
matured
to
the
level
where
I
don't
react
anymore.
I
also
understand
that
people
will
point
fingers
no
matter
what
you
do.
Once
I
remember
putting
up
a
picture
in
a
saree
and
somebody
writing,
'Aaj
poore
kapdon
mein
photo
daala
hai!'
When
I
post
a
picture
with
makeup
on,
people
call
me
'plastic
beauty'.
And
when
I
post
a
picture
without
it,
they
call
me
ugly
and
say
that
I
need
to
put
on
makeup."
Esha
said
that
the
problem
lies
at
the
basic
level
and
added
that
she
wished
people
became
more
progressive
in
their
thoughts.
The
tabloid
quoted
the
Jannat
2
actress
as
saying,
"There
are
many
who
don't
like
girls
who're
upfront.
They
like
cutesy
girls.
But
people
know
that
I'm
strong
and
if
someone
slaps
me,
I'm
going
to
slap
them
twice," she
says,
adding,
"This
isn't
just
limited
to
our
country.
It
happens
everywhere
else
in
the
world
despite
conversations
going
on
about
gender
inequality
and
sexism.
I
wish
we
become
more
progressive
in
our
thoughts."
Workwise,
Esha
was
last
seen
in
the
MX
player
web
series
Naqaab
co-starring
Mallika
Sherawat
and
Gautam
Rode.
