NRI in Canada responds to criticsDr Selene Khosla responded to the negative comments on Wednesday, saying she was simply highlighting the “pros” of living in India. “Appreciation for the haters who still manage to find faults in India, criticise others for appreciating India, and have the time to spread negativity, rather than reflecting inwards on their low sense of self-esteem, immense self-doubt, inferiority, and inability to actually feel relevant,” she said in the comments section. “I may be an NRI, but I’m doing my bit highlighting the pros, rather than the cons.” The content creator has over 1.21 lakh followers on Instagram and has a profile with a blue tick. “I’d be happy to help the haters with a free therapy session on gratitude. Wrote a PhD on it. Being nasty to others is a reflection of the hate you feel for yourself, and I’d love to help you all feel better,” she said, responding to the hate comments.
