Sushmita Sen-Lalit Modi affair: Former Miss Universe takes 'I dig deeper than gold' jibe at intellectuals for labeling her a 'gold digger'

Sushmita Sen-Lalit Modi affair: The former Miss Universe puts up a long post on Instagram slamming those who passed the gold digger taunts at her. We wonder if it is directed towards Bangladeshi writer Taslima Nasreen along with all the haters and gossip mongers

Sushmita Sen is one classy woman. As of now, her affair with IPL creator and entrepreneur Lalit Modi is the talk of the town. It seems they are dating since six months or so. People have made all sorts of comments on Sushmita Sen's latest choice of partner. One of the most common taunts has been that of a gold-digger. As we know, Lalit Modi comes from a huge business family and is flourishing in the UK. Sushmita Sen is a self-made woman and definitely does not need anyone for money. The actress has had a good career and is an entrepreneur as well. In a hard-hitting post, Sushmita Sen took a dig at everyone who called her a gold-digger including Bangladeshi writer Taslima Nasreen. The actress shared a pic of hers from a swimming pool.

The post is a very long one. But the middle part has the gold-digger reference where she says she digs deeper into a person than his or her wealth. It reads, "The friends I never had and the acquaintances I've never met .all sharing their grand opinions & deep knowledge of my life & character monetising the 'Gold Digger' all the way!!! Ah these geniuses!!! I dig deeper than Gold and I've always (famously) preferred Diamonds!! And yes I still buy them myself!!!

This message comes after Lalit K Modi took to Twitter to slam people who are judging Sushmita Sen and him. He said that people refused to accept or believe that people could find love after a certain age. He slammed Arnab Goswami as a clown. He said he did not care for those who called him a fugitive as no one had convicted him. Lalit Modi said he was born with a diamond spoon and was glad to build something that unified India. In the past, Sushmita Sen has dated men like Rohman Shawl, Randeep Hooda, Ritik Bhasin and Vikram Bhatt. She is a single mom to two daughters Renee and Alisah. Rohman Shawl has sent his best wishes to Sushmita Sen and Lalit Modi.
