However, the cryptic note did not go down well with fans of Samantha. One wrote: "Have you heard of the phrase 'below the belt' @Actor_Siddharth? I really wish that your teacher had taught you that. It's okay though. How long could you have masqueraded as a supposedly progressive person and a #feminist! Forget Samantha, I don't think anyone should be with you."
