Television actress Shveta Salve, who was on a vacation in Goa with friends and family, was slammed by trolls after she posted a picture with cigarette and a glass of wine in her hand.
In the photograph, Salve was seen smoking and holding a glass of wine in her hand. However after she posted the picture, she received humiliating messages from Instagram users, who shamed her apparently for “setting a bad example” for her daughter.

On Sunday, the actress hit back at the trolls who criticised her and called her ‘Bad Mom’, by sharing a powerful message on her Instagram account. “Yes I drink and smoke… I am real, honest and basic like that. It has to be of no reason that anyone ever judge me for the person I am or the Mommy I am… I don’t propagate it and neither do I question anyone else who does, so I would respect the same back,” Shveta wrote.

Stating that no one was entitled to judge others, Shveta ended her post saying she was going to “pour myself a red” and “light up”.
Salve shared the same message with another picture of herself in which she can be seen sipping wine.
Here is the powerful post shared by Shveta.

A Day off Looks something like this .. . Yes I Drink and Smoke … I am real , honest and basic like that. It has to be of no reason that anyone ever judge me for the person I am or the Mommy I am .. I don’t propagate it and neither do I question anyone else who does , so I would respect the same back . Today I got a few random DM’s by totally random people about my actions , and I usually let such things go pass me but for some reason today I felt like addressing it . How does this make me a bad person or a bad mom ?? Do you see me wasting my Life ? Do you see me sitting unemployed n jobless ? Do you see me neglecting my child ? I work , I work multiple jobs , I’m an actor , dancer , an entrepreneur . I successfully live in two major cities of our glorious country . I have beautiful friends whom I love and I know who love me back for the person I am . Risking the fact that I might sound aggressive but don’t ever question my abilities of being a bad example to my child !! So tell me does an honest sex worker who sells her body to feed her family , to maybe get an education or to provide a life for her children is a Bad Person ? A Bad Mother ? A stigma to society ? Who are you and I to Judge ?? My parents taught me well and exposed me to the good and evil of everything . They smoked and drank too but they did a mighty fine job of raising my brother and I . As children we knew that this was not something we could practice until a certain age . And that too if we ever wanted to.. a choice that we were allowed to take as adults … Today I share a drink with them , and celebrate the fact that they gave me a fabulous childhood n Life and I aspire to do the same with my Baby . . . I don’t pay for likes and followers , you choose to follow me for who I am . And hence what you see is me being me and you always have the option to unfollow me 🙂 . Live and Let Live ✌🏼.. this rant has gotten me all irked so I’m gonna go and pour myself a red and light up .. #micdrop 👊🏼 . #bekindtooneanother #peaceout
