KKN Gurugram Desk | Indian TV actress Devoleena Bhattacharjee, best known for her role as Gopi Bahu in the hit series Saath Nibhaana Saathiya, is once again in the headlines — this time not for her acting, but for giving a blistering reply to a Pakistani troll targeting her personal life and patriotism.

The actress, who has been actively supporting the Indian Army amidst the recent India-Pakistan tensions, shut down a troll who questioned her interfaith marriage and accused her of spreading hate. Her bold response has earned widespread praise from fans and celebrities alike.

What Happened: The Troll’s Personal Attack

As India faces heightened tensions along its western borders following the Pahalgam terror attack, many celebrities have voiced their support for the Indian Armed Forces. Devoleena, an outspoken and active user on X (formerly Twitter), shared a few posts backing the Indian military.

That’s when a Pakistani user tweeted:

“I request all Indian producers to give Devoleena some work. She’s gone mad sitting at home. Always spreading hate. I regret being her fan. If she hates Islam so much, why doesn’t she leave her Muslim husband?”

The comment attempted to attack both her professional standing and her interfaith marriage with a Muslim partner, turning it into a communal and political jab.

Devoleena’s Sharp Comeback

Unfazed, Devoleena responded with clarity, sarcasm, and unapologetic nationalism:

“Hahaha. Now they’re concerned about my career, while their own country is in shambles. Go take care of your nation and terror camps. In two days, your army is begging for international aid. Don’t worry about my husband — save your blood pressure. Hand over the terrorists you’ve nurtured to the Indian government. Poor guys, rattled by me!”

Her tweet not only addressed the personal attack but also highlighted Pakistan’s economic and diplomatic crisis, especially post-Pahalgam retaliation, where India launched Operation Sindoor.

Public Reaction: Gopi Bahu Wins the Internet

Her blunt and brave stance has sparked a wave of appreciation on social media. Hashtags like #ProudOfDevoleena, #GopiBahuRocks, and #DeshBhaktCelebrity trended on X.

Fan Reactions:

• “This is the Gopi Bahu we love — fearless and fierce!”

• “Devoleena, you are an inspiration for standing strong against hate.”

• “Finally, a celeb who doesn’t bow down to trolling. More power to you!”

Netizens have lauded her for calling out religious and political bigotry with facts and self-respect.

Who Is Devoleena Bhattacharjee?

For those unfamiliar, Devoleena is a popular Indian actress known for:

• Her role as Gopi Modi in Saath Nibhaana Saathiya

• Participation in Bigg Boss 13 and 15, where she was known for her outspoken nature

• Being socially active on topics ranging from animal rights to women empowerment

• Recently married to Shahnawaz Shaikh, a fitness trainer, in an interfaith union that she proudly defends

She has never shied away from discussing social and national issues, even if that brings trolling.

Tensions with Pakistan: The Backdrop

Her recent tweets came during a time of heightened Indo-Pak hostility, following:

• The Pahalgam terror attack, where 26 Indians were killed

• India’s retaliatory strikes under Operation Sindoor

• Ceasefire discussions brokered by the U.S.

• A surge in patriotic sentiment on Indian social media

Amid this, Devoleena’s pro-India posts and anti-terror statements were bound to attract criticism — especially from Pakistani handles attempting to derail or discredit her.

Not the First Time: Devoleena vs Online Trolls

Devoleena is no stranger to dealing with online hate. In the past:

• She has responded to those mocking her religious beliefs

• Spoken up against gender bias and trolling in the entertainment industry

• Defended fellow actors from unjust personal attacks

This consistency has earned her a reputation as a resilient and opinionated celebrity, unafraid to use her platform for truth.

Her Stand on Patriotism and Pluralism

Despite being married to a Muslim man, Devoleena has consistently stood against Islamic radicalism, making a clear distinction between faith and fanaticism. In one of her tweets, she further stated:

“No one can save a sinking boat that chooses to ignore its holes. Pakistan is that boat. And I will always support my country.”

This line, now viral, is being quoted by thousands as an example of sharp commentary on state-sponsored terrorism.

Celebrities and Influencers React

While many actors shy away from controversial topics, Devoleena’s courage has caught the attention of public figures.

Industry Reactions (Unofficial):

• A few co-stars have liked and retweeted her post

• Influencers called her a “nationalist voice in entertainment”

• Some criticized the troll for attacking a woman based on her marriage

The lack of explicit support from Bollywood, however, shows the divide in how the industry handles political criticism.

Devoleena Bhattacharjee has once again proven that courage is louder than hate. By defending the Indian Army, standing up to communal trolls, and embracing her interfaith marriage proudly, she sends a clear message: Patriotism and personal freedom are not contradictory.

As India continues to grapple with national security and cultural unity, voices like hers help define what it means to be truly fearless in the public eye.
