Raveena Tandon minces no words when it comes to taking down the trolls. The actress was questioned by a Twitter user over her stand against the decision of the new Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis to shift back the Metro 3 car shed to the Aarey forest in Mumbai. Responding to it, Raveena revealed that like any other teenager, she has traveled in locals and buses and even got eve-teased and pinched by harassers.
“Do elite @Deespeak @TandonRaveenaknow the struggle of middle-class Mumbaikars (sic)?” read the user’s tweet. To which, Raveena replied, “Teen yrs, traveled in locals/buses, got eve teased, pinched, everything that most women go through, earned my first car in 92. Development is welcome, we have to b responsible, not only a project, but wherever we are cutting thru r forests, to safeguard the environment/wildlife.”
In another tweet, she added, “Everyone’s life is not a bed of roses. Everyone has struggled to reach somewhere. I’m sure you have a house/car too. The day heat waves/flooding/natural disasters strike, it’ll affect the common man first. Elitists will be the first to run away to their Swiss chalet.”
In her next tweet, Raveena wrote, “All development is welcome, all one prays is that more is done to compensate for environmental loss/safeguarding of wildlife. India, today, prides herself with tiger count increase, but because of depleting forests road/rail kills of leopards and tigers are increasing.”
