Taapsee Pannu is one of the celebrities to have spoken up in support of Rhea Chakraborty, hitting back at those who have been calling the latter a ‘gold digger’. Rhea, who is battling money laundering accusations, among others, was given the tag by several netizens who believe the actress was in a relationship with Sushant Singh Rajput for her own benefit.
Taapsee, who is known to speak her mind on social media, shared a tweet by CNN-News18’s Marya Shakil, who had shared some newspaper headlines in the ongoing SSR death case. Sharing the tweet, Taapsee wrote, “Every woman who is with a relatively more successful man is NOT a ‘gold digger’ and for the rest , truth and investigating agencies will do their job. One step at a time.”
