Actress Swara Bhasker has once again become a target for right-wing trolls on social media. A screenshot of a tweet ascribed to her was tweeted by a user\u00a0Shash(@pokershash<\/em>) which has now been deleted<\/a>. The screenshot read, “This is what hate looks like. The wise and always open to dialogue a Muslim Lawyer attacked by so called Maulana of Muslims. She is 60 years old. This is HEARTBREAKING. Along with ALL the halala this too is on u @INCIndia”.<\/em> The tweet accumulated\u00a057 retweets and 169 likes before it was deleted.<\/p>\n

Not an original tweet<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Bhasker rubbished the statement credited to her tweeting, “My original tweet. (On left about Swami Agnivesh being attacked) and the Fake News Factory adapting it.. to the Slapgate issue<\/em>.. guys u are SO creative!<\/em>“.<\/p>\n

It didn’t stop there<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Shash<\/a>(@pokershash<\/em>) tried to save face by deleting the tweet without an apology. Later, the account tweeted the same screenshot mocking Bhasker, “Everyone knows that it\u2019s fake coz you just can\u2019t condemn violence on a woman by a muslim. It\u2019s funny that your idea of women empowerment is limited only to pathbreaking.<\/em>”<\/p>\n

Targeted earlier as well<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A photoshopped tweet of Swara Bhasker\u00a0had been circulated in the past as well. Posted below is the tweet which carried the morphed screenshot of Bhasker’s tweet,<\/p>\n

Whereas the original tweet of Bhasker was nowhere close to what was portrayed.<\/p>\n

The need for make up was because I was right in the middle of a shoot Chandni.. you know that thing called WORK.. But why is that important? People who wear make up cannot take up for a cause?

Earlier, A fake quote regarding the movie Padmaavat<\/em> was ascribed to Swara Bhasker in January 2018 by serial fake news purveyor\u00a0ShakhNaad after she had written an open letter<\/a> to director Sanjay Leela Bhansali about the movie. ShankhNaad is known for its chronic tendency of sharing misinformation<\/a>. In a statement given to Alt News, she had refuted\u00a0the claim, calling it\u00a0“perverse and wilful twisting of my article”<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n

This is a BLATANT LIE. @ShankhNaad<\/a> pls publish an official apology or we can take this to court.. https:\/\/t.co\/yJQe6UpX7l<\/a><\/p>\n
