Sonam Kapoor trolled on Twitter for equating Mumbai meat ban to misogyny

The entire nation woke up to a huge mayhem as the sale of meat got banned in Mumbai during their four-day long Jain festival. The decision by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), on Monday, put a complete ban on the slaughter of animals during the Jain fasting festival from September 10 to September 17.

Not only Mumbaikars, even Twittearti flooded the micro-blogging site with anti 'meat ban' posts, giving the issue a religious angle.

Our country is going to remain a 3rd world nation because of the intolerant misogynistic close minded few. https://t.co/JcIDEC3gQE

However, the diva was bombarded with negative tweets as several Twitter followers objected to her use of the word 'misogynistic' by cracking jokes about her fascination for brands and fashion. The diva wasted no time in giving it back to her haters by tweeting:

And the saddest thing about this whole thing is.. That it's mostly women who are calling me out on being bimbo. Guess it's not only the men!

Accepting Barkha Dutt's advice, the "Khoobsurat" actress replied,

@BDUTT thank you ma'am for the kindness.. I will do just that..
