Actress
Swara
Bhasker
is
well
aware
that
sometimes,
her
opinions
on
social
media
put
her
in
trouble,
and
in
her
recent
tete-a-tete
with
a
leading
daily,
the
actress
opened
up
about
being
vocal
and
how
her
family
looks
at
her
fearless
spirit.
While
speaking
to
Times
of
India,
Swara
said,
"I
don't
think
I
have
ever
been
punished
for
the
kind
of
roles
that
I
have
done.
What
I
have
been
punished
for
are
the
opinions
I
have
had
or
the
fact
that
I
have
been
very
vocal
about
certain
things.
More
than
giving
opinions,
I
think
about
participating
in
protests,
rallies
or
campaigning
in
2019.
I
definitely
had
to
suffer
for
that."
She
further
said
that
she
has
had
brands
terminating
contracts
who
said
she
brought
disrepute
to
the
brand
by
participating
in
the
CAA,
NRC
protests.
"But
I
don't
want
to
look
like
a
victim
here,
even
if
I
am.
These
are
the
choices
I
made.
This
is
the
fight
I
want
to
fight
and
if
this
is
the
price
I
have
to
pay
then
it
is
unfortunate.
If
I
am
being
punished
for
believing
in
what
are
basically
the
constitutional
values
of
this
country
then
I
am
willing
to
take
that
punishment," added
Bhasker.
When
asked
how
her
family
reacts
to
her
opinions,
she
said,
"They
are
like
'chup
ho
ja
Swara'
(laughs).
That
was
on
a
lighter
note.
My
family,
in
fact,
has
been
very
supportive."
Swara
further
said
that
even
though
they
are
very
concerned
and
worried
about
her
when
FIRs
and
criminal
complaints
are
filed
against
her
for
different
reasons,
but
they
never
stop
her
for
speaking
up.
