New Delhi: India badminton doubles star Jwala Gutta was involved in a Twitter outrage when a follower, in a derogatory way, called her mother – Yelan Gutta – a Chinese. Jwala was understandably furious with the person and it soon became a heated argument.
The 33-year old Indian shuttler had tweeted a video of her mother, following which she was accused of being anti-national and 'Anti Modi' by a random Twitter user. The video which showed Jwala singing a song also featured her mother.

Later, the Twitter user commented saying, "Is it because ur mother is from China that's y u oppose Modi every time?". And the shuttler just couldn't take and wrote back, "Think twice before u talk."

In recent times, social media has become a platform for people to corner and troll anyone no matter how bizarre the reasons may be. Celebrities have been the subject of unnecessary personal attacks off late, be it posting a picture with their wife, family or even playing chess.
