In an era where the Internet was a luxury and social media wasn’t as unforgiving as it is today, it seems hard to believe that someone could land in a major controversy surrounding a simple social media post. Even in those simpler times, Bollywood actress, Bipasha Basu found herself in hot water over what she had originally intended to be a harmless joke. The actress received a lot of heat for a single photo posted on her Twitter account.
Bipasha Basu’s seemingly harmless tweet that landed her in controversy
It was back in 2011 when the Bollywood diva, Bipasha, shared a candid moment on her Twitter feed, posting a picture of two girls tying her shoelaces, but their faces were not visible. Posting the picture in jest, Bipasha accompanied it with a caption that read:
“I need to learn to tie shoe laces ASAP! Embarrassed that I can’t! No patience, grrrrr! Promise, I am not spoilt! Will learn soon.”
