Most following the recent events would know that a certain section of Indians was revisiting the 2023 protests when Vinesh, along with two other women wrestlers, accused the former president of the Wrestling Federation of India, Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, of intimidation and sexual harassment.

Devoleena Bhattacharjee has now slammed the negativity around Vinesh Phogat’s Olympics 2024 win. She wrote, “Kar di na manushiyat waali harkat. Jeetne ka jashn naa manakar govt ko gaali de rahe the. Kya hua ? Laga di buri nazar Bharat k Medal par. Sudhar jao waqt rehte. Bharat ka bura cahne waalo ka naa aaj tak bhala hua hai aur naahi hoga kabhi. Yeh baat gaath baandh lo.”
A user reacted to Devoleena’s tweet and asked if athletes from America and China are not impacted by “bad luck.” To this, the Saath Nibhaana Saathiya actress reacted, “Kyun ki wahan jeetne ka jashn manate hai. Jeet ko badle ka naam dekar maatam nahi. Bharat bahar k dushmano se baad mein lade. Pehle ho ghar k andar baithe hai unse nipatle toh India ka adha problem solve hojaye. Intention maayne rakhta hai. Jaisa karm waisa phal.”
