However, Swara shut the trolls by tweeting, "A guy asks for a selfie @ airport; I oblige ‘coz I don't discriminate people who want selfies based on their politics. He sneakily shoots a video. Tacky & underhand tactics r trademarks of bhakts. I'm unsurprised. But always glad 2 make bhakts feel like their lives are worthwhile."

Things did not stop there. The man replied to her tweet saying, "sneakily shoots video? I can see clearly you're in full attention and smiling! Dumb. nd I've nothing to comment about underhand coz you're expert in that. Instead of making bhakts life worthwhile make ur movies worth for money so that u'll not have to do gulami of RaGa long life."

We wonder what Swara has to say on this!
