However, amid the flood of positive messages, one troll attempted to stir controversy by commenting:

“Why doesn’t he (Virat) mention you in any speech? He doesn’t like your posts. Anushka doesn’t either.”

Responding calmly, Bhawna wrote:

“May God give you the patience to understand that love can exist in many ways, not necessarily visible to the world. But it’s still real—like love for God. I hope you have enough love in your life, no insecurities, only true bonds that don’t need validation. God bless you.”

Her dignified response resonated with many, earning praise for her maturity and the way she defended her bond with Virat and Anushka without engaging in negativity.
