Irony just died a thousand deaths.
Replying to this accusation, Chinmayi accepted that she threw a shade and it was unnecessary. She said that she can’t be mum on seeing threats on rape and sexual harassments just because she did a silly banter online. She also compared her comment against Pooja Hegde with people calling her as “Prostitute”. “Anyway its not like all of you calling me a prostitute.” she wrote in her post.

As I said – a silly banter was unnecessary from my side. Anyway I dont watch while people send rape threats and photoshop genitalia photos on children’s faces. What I face day in and day out from the community here is sexual harassment and I think the majority is this. Thank you

Here’s how Chinmayi replied to few more users who criticized her :
I threw shade. I am not proud of it. But at least I ll agree what I did and apologize. Feminism is definitely not appearance shaming someone else. However I didn't call names; I just got called a lot of abuse my men like you though.

Considering you dont even dare to use your own name; you think how YOU define me as a human being or feminist matters? Sowwie kid – your opinion doesnt matter to me
