Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Heeramandi series was released on May 1 on Netflix. The show stars Manisha Koirala, Sonakshi Sinha, Fardeen Khan, Shekhar Suman, Aditi Rao Hydari, Sanjeeda Sheikh, Adhyayan Suman, Sharmin Segal and Taha Shah Badussha. SLB’s first web series received mixed reviews from the audience and critics.

One actress who is getting severely criticised for her performance is Sharmin Segal. Sharmin plays Alamzeb, Manisha Koirala, aka Mallikajaan’s daughter, in Heeramandi. Segal is brutally trolled on social media for having no “expressions” on her face. Now, actor Taha Shah Badussha, who plays Tajdar Baloch, Sharmin’s romantic interest in the Netflix show, has reacted to the trolling.

Heeramandi’s Taha Shah Badussha on Sharmin Segal Getting Trolled

“Sharmin has only done two films, and her method involves keeping it subtle. Having worked with her, I know she’s given her best as an actor. I didn’t anticipate receiving this much love and appreciation for my role, hence the audience can be quite unpredictable to be honest. As far as Sharmin and her performance are concerned, I’ve literally lived with her on the sets. She was always punctual and tried to do her best. How it comes off to the audience, is a different ball game and I can’t comment on them. But I know that she has got a great heart. She was always present on the set, and as an actor, that’s what you all need,” the Heeramandi star said.
