Social media comes with its own pros and cons. While it bridges the gap between a celebrity and their fans, it also gives a platform to the trollers. Some netizens flood the posts of the celebrities with negative comments, fat-shaming and criticising them on how they look. Celeb trolling has become a common phenomenon, but stars also make sure to give it back to the trollers every now and then. And this time, it is South superstar, Samantha Akkineni, who had expressed her concern over the trolling she had faced post her wedding with Naga Chaitanya.

Samantha Akkineni and Naga Chaitanya became each other’s forever on October 06, 2017, in Goa. It has been more than two years of their happily wedded bliss and the two have been truly enjoying their marital life to the fullest. Did you know Samantha’s engagement saree was personalised to incorporate the milestones and special details of the #ChaiSam love story? Samantha’s Lovestory 2.0 lehenga was an ivory beauty by Kresha Bajaj and the combination of aari and zardosi embroidery on it had swooned us completely. Isn’t it amazing?
But Samantha Akkineni was trolled for her outfit picks post her wedding with Naga Chaitanya. Recalling the negative criticism she had faced for wearing a revealing outfit for the first time after marriage, Samantha stated in an interview with the Hyderabad Times, “I remember, the first time when I wore something revealing after marriage, I was trolled terribly and it was very, very hard. But I noticed that when I did it the second time, it was not so bad. It’s all about taking that first step. I’m not going to say that I did something brave. I was scared of the repercussions and of the trolling. But at the same, I told myself that things have to change and I’m going to do as much as I can to be a part of that change.”
In February 2018, Samantha Akkineni had given a glimpse of her calm afternoon on a hammock as she sported a pink and black bikini. She had captioned it as “This isn’t a want it’s a NEEEEED!!!! #tired #tired #tired #tired Is it vacation time yet? #dreamer.” Samantha was mercilessly trolled for her beach picture in a bikini and reacting to the same, she was quoted as saying by an English Daily, “I know I would be trolled for posting a picture in a swimsuit on the beach, but do you expect me to wear a sari on the beach? I don't post them to get attention! But who tells me what pictures I should post? Just because I am a married person, they troll me. No one needs to tell me as to how I should conduct my life. I don't want to be scared. I don't want to fall into that trap.”
