Translated, the comment reads: "In their prime, even pigs look beautiful" (referring to Riythvika's photo)
And the reply reads:
"Very glad to stand up for the cause of the Dalit community, privileged even.
I was born into a dominant caste that was criminally oppressing Dalits
Let us uphold humanity and live in a casteless society.
Though I wasn't born a Dalit, in some ways I am a Dalit woman myself
Because women are also oppressed by men
Men like you, who wear the sin of oppressing every other gender and community around you
I thank you for commenting on my beauty or the lack thereof
P.S. Dalit women are more beautiful than me"
Seeing this post, fans went all out to support and praise the actor. Netizens went all out to laud the actor for her reply and also told her to take the matter further as what he did was just wrong.
