Shveta Salve, who happens to be quite active on Instagram, often shares adorable family photos with her hubby and baby girl. From announcing her pregnancy with a cute baby bump photo to posting some gorgeous glimpses of her maternity photoshoot – Shveta made us a part of her journey towards motherhood right from the very beginning. And now, the little munchkin makes frequent appearances on her proud mom’s feed.

The mother-daughter duo usually receives a lot of love on social media. But a while ago, Shweta was trolled and criticized a lot for posting photos, where she’s drinking and smoking. Many wrote that she’s setting a bad example for her daughter and that her current lifestyle makes her a ‘bad mom’

Not the one to keep mum, Shveta gave it back to her haters with an apt response.

A Day off Looks something like this ..

Yes I Drink and Smoke … I am real , honest and basic like that. It has to be of no reason that anyone ever judge me for the person I am or the Mommy I am .. I don’t propagate it and neither do I question anyone else who does , so I would respect the same back . Today I got a few random DM’s by totally random people about my actions , and I usually let such things go pass me but for some reason today I felt like addressing it . How does this make me a bad person or a bad mom ?? Do you see me wasting my Life ? Do you see me sitting unemployed n jobless ? Do you see me neglecting my child ? I work , I work multiple jobs , I’m an actor , dancer , an entrepreneur . I successfully live in two major cities of our glorious country . I have beautiful friends whom I love and I know who love me back for the person I am . Risking the fact that I might sound aggressive , don’t ever question my abilities of being a bad example to my child !! So tell me does an honest sex worker who sells her body to feed her family , to maybe get an education or to provide a life for her children is a Bad Person ? A Bad Mother ? A stigma to society ? Who are you and I to Judge ?? My parents taught me well and exposed me to the good and evil of everything . They smoked and drank too but they did a mighty fine job of raising my brother and I . As children we knew that this was not something we could practice until a certain age . And that too if we ever wanted to.. a choice that we were allowed to take as adults …
Today I share a drink with them , and celebrate the fact that they gave me a fabulous childhood n Life and I aspire to do the same with my Baby . .
