While Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s OTT debut received a lot of critical acclaim, some actors, including Sharmin Segal, became targets of the trolls.

Heeramandi’s Taha Shah Badussha believes everybody wishes to grow as he comments on trolling of Sharmin Segal and other co-stars
In a recent interview with Cosmopolitan India, Taha Shah Badussha was asked about his reaction to the trolling that some of his co-actors from Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar faced for their performances. In response, Taha stated that trolling was wrong in general.
He expressed, “Sanjay Leela Bhansali sir would never put his trust in anybody… look at me for example like literally I had nothing, I had a three-day role.” Taha continued by mentioning that if the filmmaker didn't see something in him, he wouldn't trust him with the role. He claimed that SLB knew his vision precisely and could look right through one’s soul.
Talking about his co-stars, Taha shared his belief that, in the end, what really counted was that all of them gave it their all on the series.
