Soon, netizens started trolling the couple. After Sushmita was called a gold digger, her ex-boyfriend, Vikram Bhatt talked about it. Vikram had dated Sushmita for a long time, and he openly said in an interview with India Today that she is a love digger. He also pointed out netizens making fun of celebrities. He said:
"Sushmita is a love digger, not a gold digger. I think making fun of other people's life is entertainment. Someone’s tragedy is someone’s entertainment, that’s always there. When Kareena [Kapoor] married Saif [Ali Khan], even she was trolled. So, I think it goes with the territory, if you are a celebrity and if there is a decision of yours which seems funny to netizens, they start trolling."

The filmmaker further added that Sushmita is not someone who checks out a bank balance before falling in love. Talking about his experience, Vikram shared that he was penniless and had no money, but Sushmita had taken him to the US and paid for his trip. He said:
"Sushmita is the last person who checks out bank balances before she decides to fall in love with someone. I was penniless. I was directing Ghulam, but I had no money. I will not forget that Sushmita was the person who first took me to the US, and she paid for my trip. I had no money. When we reached Los Angeles and there was a limousine, and I was surprised. She said that she wanted to make my entry in the US very special."
