Telugu actress Hema has spoken openly about the emotional pain caused by online trolling and false rumours spread on social media. The actress, who has been a part of the film industry for many years and is known for her comic and supporting roles, said that people often forget that celebrities are human too, with real feelings and families.
Hema said that some people on social media spread fake stories, edit videos, and create misleading headlines just to get attention. She explained that these actions can damage a person’s reputation and mental peace. She shared that it was upsetting to see wrong and personal comments about her and her family being shared widely without any truth.
The actress said that she is not against healthy criticism, but she believes that mocking, insulting and spreading lies should not be accepted. She added that trolling is not entertainment, especially when it targets someone’s personal life, looks or character. Hema also said that many people share such content without checking if it is true, which makes the situation worse.
Speaking to her followers, she requested everyone to be more responsible online. She said that words typed on a screen can still hurt just as much as words spoken in real life. She also encouraged youngsters and fans to use social media for positive purposes, such as appreciation, creativity, learning and spreading kindness.
Hema shared that she wants to continue acting and entertaining audiences, but she hopes people will stop judging public figures based only on rumours. She also reminded people that behind every celebrity is a family that feels hurt when they see rude or false comments.
Her message has started discussions online about the importance of respectful behaviour, safe social media use and mental health. Many of her supporters praised her for speaking bravely on a sensitive issue that affects many people in the public eye.
