New Delhi: Actor and newly elected MP Mimi Chakraborty recently took a dig at trolls for ignoring cricketer Gautam Gambhir's casual photograph.
Two days back, Mimi was trolled heavily on social media for posing outside the parliament sporting jeans and shirt-clad look along with Nusrat Jahan.
A scribe questioned on Twitter if the "fashion police" had attacked Gambhir, a BJP MP from East Delhi, yet.

"Or only for the women? I think Gautam Gambhir is looking great," the scribe wrote.
However, it drew Mimi's attention and she was quick to respond, "No, they didn't ma'am. It's only because we are women probably, but Gautam Gambhir looks great."

Gambhir was dressed in a casual round neck t-shirt and held up his identification card to pose in front of the iconic parliament building.
Mimi's picture was widely circulated on the Internet as she posed alongside Nusrat, the Basirhat Trinamool Congress MP, who was dressed in fitted pants and a zipped peplum top.
Although there is no restriction on wearing western outfits to parliament as per Constitution, Mimi and Nusrat received backlash on social media.
A section of social media users commented that they should have chosen Indian traditional wear to parliament, instead of looking like "tourists".
Mimi contested from Jadavpur and won with a huge margin of 2,95,239 votes, while Jahan contested from Basirhat Lok Sabha seat in West Bengal and won by 3,50,369 votes.
