Some of the comments read:
"Why don't you change your name from Sara to Sara(swati) or something and then worship all the gods..."
"I thought you are Muslim."
"Please accept Hinduism."
"Please Saraji behave yourself you are a Muslim so... please don't do this again."
"Shame on you if you are Khan then don't change God."
