Veteran actress Neelima Azeem has candidly spoken about facing relentless online criticism and bullying over her personal life, particularly her three marriages.
Neelima, 67, has been a prominent presence in Indian film and television since the 1980s and has faced intense trolling and media scrutiny over the years.
In a recent Zoom interview, she shared that online comments about her personal life can still feel deeply hurtful, despite her learning to embrace and accept herself over the years.
Neelima clarified that she never married for material or riches, but for love and companionship, and emphasized the importance of speaking up against online bullying.
She expressed disappointment over seeing women tear each other down and called it deeply saddening, saying that she has come to a place where she must speak her truth to prevent people from suppressing her voice and changing her facts.
