Shikha Singh, who took a break from acting after welcoming a baby daughter last year, received a barrage of nasty comments on social media on Wednesday after sharing a topless photo of herself.
Shikha took to Instagram to post a stunning photo just days after sharing a photo of herself breastfeeding her daughter. It depicts the actress laying on a bed with a pillow artfully positioned to cover her modesty.
While many of Shikha's industry pals left positive comments in the comments area, some netizens looked disappointed.
A user wrote: "Ye expect nahi kiya tha apse."

"Yeah sahi nahi hai," commented another.
"Shame on you," read a comment on the post.
Others left comments like - "what happened to you?" "Not expected from uhhhh," "highly disappointed."
Shikha shared a photo of herself breastfeeding her daughter Alyna on Instagram last week with the caption, "We live in a society where a mother catches less hell for giving her toddler a coke than she does for giving her toddler Breastmilk. I am working to change that in my lifetime - Deanna Decker #goalofourlife #imlovingit #beyourownkindofmom”
Several celebrities lauded her for doing her bit in 'normalising' breastfeeding in public.
Actress Supriya Shukla wrote, "Superb shikha... I have fed my daughters in malls... Restaurants...Car. Nothing is more important than my child n her feeding...Luv u"
Ekta Kaul commented, "Love it too.. posting about it too.."
Ankita Bhargava Patel's comment read: "Totally !!! I too am working towards Normalising what is the most NORMAL thing to do ! Still have ppl close to me asking me to stop breastfeeding ! Including The Gynacs and Peds doc”. "Funny isnt it ! Its ok to STEAL milk from a lactating ANIMAL and feed ur baby…. But its not ok to feed ur own baby with ur OWN MILK when they become toddlers ? More power to YOU and all the breeastfeeding Moms out there !"
In June of 2020, Shikha Singh and her pilot husband Karan Shah welcomed their first baby. Alayna Singh Shah is their daughter's name.
Shikha Singh is well known for her role as Kumkum Bhagya in Ekta Kapoor's 'Kumkum Bhagya.' Sriti Jha, Shabir Ahluwalia, and Leena Jumani appeared in the popular Zee TV show.
