Sushmita Sen On Being Called A Gold Digger

The former Miss Universe wrote, “Perfectly centred in my being & my conscience…I love how nature merges all its creation to experience oneness…and just how divided we are when we break that balance. It’s heartbreaking to see just how miserable & unhappy the world around us is becoming.”

The actress further wrote, “The so-called intellectuals with their idiosyncrasies…the ignorant with their cheap & at times funny gossip, the friend I never had & the acquaintances I’ve never met…all sharing their ground opinions & deep knowledge of my life & character…monetising the ‘God Digger’ all the way!!! Ah, these geniuses!!!

“I dig deeper than gold…I’ve always (famously) preferred diamonds!! And yes, I still buy them for myself,” read the caption.

“I love the all-heart support my well-wishers & loved ones continue to extend. Please know, your Sush is absolutely fine… cause I’ve never lived on the transient borrowed light of approval & applause. I am the Sun… perfectly centred in my being & my conscience,” the caption read.
