Rhea Chakraborty playfully calls herself a 'Bigger Gold Digger' than Sushmita Sen

Rhea Chakraborty's new chat show, Chapter 2, kicks off with Sushmita Sen as the first guest. In a teaser shared by Rhea on Instagram, she playfully teases Sushmita about someone else being a bigger gold digger in the room. Sushmita responds with curiosity, and Rhea jokingly admits, "It's me." Their friendly banter continues, with Sushmita sarcastically asking, "Oh, you too?" and Rhea playfully claiming, "I'm the biggest one."

It seems like Sushmita Sen faced criticism on social media for her relationship with Lalit Modi, with many labeling her as a golddigger. The announcement of their pairing in 2022 sparked a viral reaction online, leading to memes highlighting the contrast in their looks and wealth. Some found humor in their unexpected relationship, while others openly criticized Sen, suggesting she was with Modi for his wealth, despite her own successful career.

Sushmita responded with a powerful Instagram post, “Perfectly centered in my being and my conscience... I love how nature merges all of its creations to experience oneness. and just how divided we are when we break that balance. It’s heartbreaking to see just how miserable and unhappy the world around us is becoming….The so-called intellectuals with their idiosyncrasies... the ignorant with their cheap and, at times, funny gossip The friends I never had and the acquaintances I’ve never met—all sharing their grand opinions and deep knowledge of my life and character—monetizing the ‘Gold Digger’ all the way!!! Ah, these geniuses!!! I dig deeper than gold... and I’ve always (famously) preferred diamonds! And yes, I still buy them myself!!! I love the all-hearted support my well-wishers and loved ones continue to extend. Please know that your Sush is ABSOLUTELY fine, because I’ve never lived on the transient borrowed light of approval and applause. I am the sun...perfectly centered in my being and my conscience!!”

After Sushant Singh Rajput's tragic death in 2020, Rhea faced harsh criticism on social media. She was labeled a gold digger and accused of misusing Sushant's money.
