Aishwarya Sharma and Neil Bhatt have been in the limelight since their appearance on Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin and Bigg Boss 17. However, the couple is once again making headlines as reports suggest they are heading for divorce. Amid this, the actress took to social media to address claims of bullying her co-stars. She also revealed that she has been trolled for her looks ever since her engagement.
Taking to her Instagram Stories, the actress wrote, "People are making their own assumptions about my life - what I've done and who I am - without knowing a single fact. Some are even saying âkarma is a bitch.' Before believing any of that, ask the people who actually worked with me. Ask my co-actors. Ask my producers. Ask anyone from my set if I ever bullied, disrespected, or harmed anyone. Not even once. The only thing I did was maintain my professionalism on set."
She added, "Ever since I got engaged, I'm the one who has been getting trolled nonstop. And I took it with a smile on my face. But nobody talks about that. Nobody says that I am the one being bullied. Why is that invisible to everyone? On top of that, random people keep sending me messages and YouTube links where my name is attached to false stories - claims that I bullied someone, that I slapped someone, that I misbehaved. None of this ever happened."
Revealing why she didn't react earlier, the Bigg Boss 17 contestant continued, "I stayed silent because every time I speak, people twist it and use my name for views. And they will do it again. But silence doesn't mean I'm wrong, it just means I refuse to feed negativity. So let me say this clearly: I have NEVER bullied anyone in my life. People spreading lies for profit should really think about their own karma."
She also addressed mental health and concluded, "You talk about mental health, but think before saying anything wrong about someone you don't even know personally. Some people choose to stay quiet, and that includes me. But silence doesn't mean you can say whatever you want. I will take my own stand and protect my own dignity."
The couple has reportedly filed for divorce. A source close to them told News18 that the duo has been living separately for quite some time. "Neil and Aishwarya have been living separately for a long time now. They have officially filed for divorce, and formalities are likely to begin soon. We are not sure how the problems started, but it is confirmed that they are now parting ways," the source claimed.
