Pavitra Punia, known for playing Geet Dhillon in Love U Zindagi, recently slammed a troll who criticised her for following her “sanatan dharma”. For those unaware, the actress often posts glimpses of her visiting the holy shrines on her social media handles. From donning traditional clothes, sindoor and tikka to taking part in the rituals, the sneak peeks into her trip to seek blessings are indeed stunning. However, the actress, who is an ardent follower of her religion, was called out by a troll. Undoubtedly, the actress also gave a strong reply to him.
Taking to her Instagram stories, Pavitra Punia reposted the troll’s post. It featured one of her IG posts, including a series of glimpses of her temple visit. In the picture, she was wearing a yellow salwar suit teamed with a Banarasi dupatta. Additionally, Pavitra flaunted sindoor on her forehead and smiled the brightest while posing for the lens. Atop it, the person asked the Bigg Boss 14 fame to convert to Islam. The user mentioned that the actress couldn’t marry Eijaz Khan as she didn’t convert to Islam and wrote, “@pavitrapunia_ sister pavitra my advice to u stop doing satanic idol worship. It is so sad to hear that you didn’t marry our brother ajaz. Look, he can’t marry you until you convert to the rules of Islam. So now I invite you to Islam.”
Further, claiming that she should abandon her ‘satanic idol worships’, the user argued that Islam represents the ultimate truth. The individual even noted that many women have been converting to Islam recently. The person added, “Everyone knows even the Bollywood celebs know Islam is the truth. They have Quran verses in their houses as well. My advice is to start reading the Quran translated at the link below. We believe in Allah unseen, unlike the creation sent by the last prophet @pay Muhammad to guide humanity. Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world with over 25k converts per year in the USA alone. 75% of converts in west are women.”
The troll’s post came after the actress was spotted at a recent media interaction where she revealed that she ‘refused to convert to Islam’ at the start of her relationship with Eijaz Khan. Although she clearly stated that Eijaz never asked her to convert, her words were still misinterpreted. It resulted in widespread confusion and hateful comments.
However, the post didn’t go down well with Pavitra, who is in no mood to cease her ‘satanic idol worship’. She gave a strong reply to it, saying, “Bomb pichwade mein hi fodungi tere beta, Sikha mat Warna “sanatan dharm” kya hai achhe se samjhane ke liye bohot time hai mere paas (I will explode the bomb in your back. Don’t try to teach me, otherwise, I have a lot of time to make you understand what ‘Sanatan Dharma’ is).”
Pavitra Punia and Eijaz Khan announced their separation in 2024 after being in a steady relationship for two years.
