Rajeev Sen praised his sister as a “self-made woman” and a “role model for many Indians” in an interview with ETimes. Lalit Modi confirmed last week that he and the former Miss Universe were dating, and since then, Sushmita Sen, 46, has received criticism on social media for being a “money digger.” “A lot of bad things have been said about my sister because of her recent photos with Mr. Modi. I’m able to declare with pride that my sister is a success story. She is a responsible mother who understands her priorities, and many Indians look up to her.
Rajeev Sen is referring to these three Instagram posts that Sushmita published after Lalit Modi made their relationship social media official. The third of these talked about the harassment she has experienced. “The so-called intellectuals with their eccentricities; the uneducated with their shoddy but occasionally entertaining rumors… The acquaintances I’ve never met and the friends I’ve never had are all offering their wonderful insights into my life and character while profiting from the “Gold Digger” moniker!! These brainiacs, “With her letter, Sushmita Sen included a photo of herself in the Maldives.
Sushmita Sen explained that she and Lalit Modia are not married in her first post of the three in question, which was a selfie with her daughters Alisah and Renee. She penned: “I am content right now!! NO RINGS… NOT MARRIED… I’m surrounded by affection, and unconditional love! That’s enough explanation; let’s get back to life and work! I appreciate you always being a part of my happiness, and for those of you who aren’t, there’s #NOYB. Anyway!!! I adore you all!”
