After woman trolls actor Siddharth for supporting Disha Ravi he gives it back

Actor Siddharth, who has been vocal with his support for 22-year-old climate activist Disha Ravi and condemned her arrest by the Delhi police, is now the target of social media attacks by members associated with the BJP government. On Wednesday, Karuna Gopal, who was a member of the BJP National Manifesto Sub-Committee, shared a picture with text from one of Siddharth’s recent tweets, and wrote that his statements were “baseless” and “provocative” in nature.

 
 

 

She further mused that he could be a “school dropout”. In the tweet put under spotlight by Karuna, Siddharth had explained what a ‘toolkit’ was, comparing it with plans made by friends to watch a movie together.

Countering her statement, Siddharth wrote that in 2009, he had attended a panel discussion at Indian School of Business along with Jayaprakash Narayan at Karuna’s behest. “This lady badgered me for months to attend her panel discussion at ISB in 2009, which I did, along with @JP_LOKSATTA. Back then too I was a Post Graduate and I spoke my mind. She however sold both her integrity and her memory to her master. Now spreads Modi lies and vomit. (sic),” Siddharth wrote.

The actor then shared a video of his speech from the event and added, “This is my speech at the Indian School of Business in 2009. In it I speak against poor journalism, public amnesia and incompetent governance. I was young and angry then. I am younger and angrier today.”

Siddharth further added that the country is being “brainwashed and gaslit by a new normal kind of evil.” He wrote that India has changed since 2014 in front of every one’s eyes. “I wonder why I never got a single complaint or threat then about the tone and nature of my speech? Nobody attacked me for having an opinion... For asking questions. India has changed. It changed in front of our eyes. Question is... what are we going to do about it?” reads his tweet.

 

There, however, continues a back and forth between Siddharth and Karuna. While the latter claims that Siddharth was a “panellist brought in by someone from the school”, the former has now said that he has emails to show as proof that the invite did indeed come from her.

When Karuna claimed that the mail was sent from her office, Siddharth shared a screenshot of an email addressed to him from Karuna, requesting his presence for an art show by her son.

The actor has been receiving support for his stand.
