Actress Swara Bhasker, who recently made headlines for calling out a netizen’s ‘vegetarian’ post on the occasion of Eid al-Adha 2024 also known as Bakri Eid, shared pictures of a sumptuous fare that was hosted by her vegetarian parents. The actress is married to politician and activist Fahad Ahmad and has a daughter named Raabiya


Swara wrote on X, “It was Raabu’s first Bakr-Eid... Even though @FahadZirarAhmad and I weren’t in the same city my parents and friends made this first Eid joyous and celebratory for Raabu. I feel so grateful that my baby has a tribe that knows that festivals are meant to share joy & love. Heart & tummy is full! Blessed!”



For the occasion, Swara and her baby girl twinned in red and orange ethnic ensembles. 

In an elaborate post on Instagram, she mentioned, “My vegetarian parents hosted the most sumptuous dinner and my friends came with blessings, warmth and so many gifts for my baby girl. But most importantly with big hearts and with precious time.”

On the day of Bakri Eid, Swara criticised a food blogger for expressing pride in being a vegetarian. 

Recently, a food blogger took to X and shared a picture of vegetable fried rice with a paneer dish, captioning it, “I'm proud to be a vegetarian. My plate is free from tears, cruelty, and guilt.”

Swara responded by quote-tweeting the blogger, expressing her opinion, and stating that she doesn’t understand the “smug self-righteousness of vegetarians.”

The actress pointed out that no food is entirely cruelty-free, including dairy products.

Swara wrote: “Honestly... I don’t understand this smug self-righteousness of vegetarians. Your entire diet is made up of denying the calf its mother’s milk... forcibly impregnating cows, then separating them from their babies and stealing their milk. You eat root vegetables? That kills the whole plant! Please relax with the virtue signalling just because it’s Bakr Eid.”

Swara, who is known for her roles in 'Nil Battey Sannata', the 'Tanu Weds Manu' franchise, 'Prem Ratan Dhan Payo', 'Veere Di Wedding', and others, often finds herself embroiled in controversies due to her outspoken behaviour.
