You went on a witch hunt. You caused deep anguish and harrasment just for TRP’s. Apologise. That’s the very least you can do,” wrote Dia.
Social media sensation and television actor, Uorfi Javed, took to her Instagram stories to support Rhea. “@rhea_chakraborty the grace you’ve carried yourself through all of this is so inspiring!” wrote Uorfi.
