Chennai: Veteran actress and politician Khushbu has earned widespread praise across social media platforms after delivering a scorching retort to a troll who posted a misogynistic and disrespectful comment concerning Superstar Rajinikanth’s upcoming film, Thalaivar 173, and director Sundar C.
The controversy erupted shortly after the news of director Sundar C’s amicable exit from the Rajinikanth project began circulating. While much of the discussion focused on the film’s schedule and technical aspects, one netizen crossed the line by posting a vulgar comment. The troll suggested that the reason for Sundar C’s departure was Rajinikanth asking Khushbu to perform an item song, an attack that was both deeply disrespectful to the actress and demeaning to women.
Instead of ignoring the personal attack, Khushbu responded sharply, turning the tables on the offender. Her viral reply stated, “No… we thought we could have someone from your house dance it,” instantly becoming the biggest talking point online.
Fans and industry observers have lauded the actress for her courageous and witty response, which effectively challenged the culture of online misogyny and personal mud-slinging without resorting to unwarranted insult.
Khushbu’s decisive action serves as a powerful example of how public figures can confront online violence, upholding the honour of her family and colleagues, Rajinikanth and Sundar C, while strongly signaling that personal attacks against women will not be tolerated.
