Netizens Reaction
As soon as the video was shared on social media, netizens started trolling Sharmin again. While some criticized the way she talks, others said that she is disrespecting the superstars by not appropriately addressing their names.
A user wrote, “I’d be pissed if I were at work and also had to babysit my boss’s needy and spoiled niece/nephew. So unprofessional of SLB!” A second one said, “Her diction is so harsh. The way she speaks seems so unpolished for someone who has all the resources available to her.
“Why can’t she use proper terms when talking about Aishwarya? Aishwarya isn’t her friend,” a third one commented. To which a user replied saying, “Was thinking the same . They both are much more senior than her. Even some of their peers don’t take their names in such a blase manner. And look at this entitled nepotism baby.”
