The actress minced no words as she wrote, "Bombay roads don't deserve our taxes! That's our hard-earned money going into putting up posters of corrupt politicians! We pay for their expensive cars, expensive houses, Z plus security! Where is my tax money going!?" In a clear message to the authorities, she tagged @mybmc and Bharati Lavekar, the MLA of Mumbai, Maharashtra.

The Khuda Haafiz actress's frustration with the situation was palpable as she urged the authorities to take immediate action and improve the city's infrastructure. "Enough is really enough! We need better infrastructure!! It's the same story year after year! We get damber roads instead of concrete! We can't walk! We can't drive! We are crippled because you guys are so bloody corrupt! Do better @mybmc! Do better than putting your posters!" she voiced in another tweet.
