Sonam, who earlier this week got into a Twitter troll over a four-day meat ban here by terming it "misogynistic", called upon the victims of internet bullying to stand up for themselves:

Sonakshi Sinha too was a victim to Twitter troll earlier this week, when her opinion against the meat ban annoyed some users.

"This is a free country! Welcome to BAN-istan... I meant India... Stupid autocorrect," the Dabangg actress tweeted:

This tweet was followed by remarks directed against the 28-year-old actress.

She then gave out a strong reply:
