The Indian actress called on everyone to stop the hate and even threatened action if anyone crossed their lines.
She explained that her kind replies could be taken as sympathy by her haters.
” [I] I said it umpteen times to everyone to stop the hate but I think some needed personal attention to gain influence so here we go!” she wrote on Wednesday.
“Now if I see something that crosses a line, I will take action.”
Jiya added that it’s easy to hate someone by hiding their identity, and if the haters have courage, they’d better come up with their real names.
“It’s so easy to throw hatred at someone who hides their own identity,” she wrote.
“Give your real name, identity and photo and we can talk.”
“I speak very kindly, or certainly think I want to win sympathy.”
