Sushmita Sen who is currently gearing up for her next release Taali, reacted to the tag "gold digger", hurled at her by trolls. Recently the former Miss Universe, during her interaction with Zoom, said, "It's good that those comments came to me and I could define 'gold digger'. An insult is an insult when you receive it, which I don't. But there are certain things that are nobody's business." Sushmita Sen also said that she is "single" now. Sushmita Sen also told Zoom that many people from the film fraternity told her that they didn't expect her to even react to those comments. Responding to that, Sushmita said, "It's my business and I'll respond when I want to."
Last year, Sushmita Sen shared a long post on her Instagram addressing the trolls who called her "gold digger". An excerpt from the post read, "I dig deeper than Gold...and I've always (famously) preferred Diamonds!! And yes I still buy them myself!!!" Sushmita added, "The so called intellectuals with their idiosyncrasies....the ignorant with their cheap & at times funny gossip. The friends I never had & the acquaintances I've never met....all sharing their grand opinions & deep knowledge of my life & character...monetising the 'Gold Digger' all the way!!! Ah these geniuses!!!"
