The candid comments of Shweta Tiwari about the gossip around her daughter Palak Tiwari and the frustration with the trollers on social media portray both realities of celebrity life and the protective instincts of a mother. Undeniably, even though Shweta has developed the resilience for such constant speculations and negativities because she is being portrayed by the media day and night, her care for her daughter is no less than anybody else.
In the interview, Shweta said that she does not get affected by the rumors as much as she used to be. Being a seasoned TV star who has faced her share of media scrutiny, she has become less bothered by the transient nature of online gossip. Her acknowledgment of the fact that the attention span of people is low and that negative stories are more sensational and profitable shows her deep insight into the cycle of the entertainment industry. The statement of being ‘married thrice’ in the public eye and Palak being linked to “every third guy” emphasizes the trivial and exaggerated nature of such rumors, which can often be based on little more than assumptions or momentary observations.

However, despite all the experience she has earned, the concern Shweta shows is for Palak, particularly regarding online trolls. Shweta refers to how the current media era has become toxic, and trolling has reached “disturbing levels. It is no wonder that being a mother, she feels concern for her daughter’s emotional well-being since Palak is usually viewed as a soft-spoken, innocent young woman and may not have the same vocal retorts to defend herself from online negativity. While Palak may not read the comments, Shweta admits that it still affects her, fearing that even if her daughter doesn’t outwardly show it, the constant barrage of criticism might subtly undermine her confidence.
Shweta’s comments also reflect the harsh reality of social media, where people can be relentless and often cruel, despite the person they target being an innocent bystander or just trying to live their life. As a mother, the idea that these comments could affect Palak’s self-esteem is something that deeply concerns her, especially as Palak is still at an early stage in her career.
Interestingly, Shweta credits Palak for teaching her how to handle trolls. It may indicate that despite facing all the challenges, Palak has developed her resilience, perhaps learning not to take the negativity online as a personal attack. Yet, it’s only when Shweta shows concern over how this could affect her daughter’s confidence that it becomes clear how challenging it is to keep children away from the roughness of the digital world.
Palak is still in the early phases of her career, given that her first film was Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, which did not make much noise at the box office. Her upcoming project, The Virgin Tree, is scheduled for release in 2025 and can give her another chance to establish herself. The horror-comedy genre in the film, coupled with Sanjay Dutt and Mouni Roy, is one to watch out for, which may give Palak her chance to carve out a space for herself in the industry, outside of the constant media scrutiny.
Shweta’s interview sheds light on the balancing act she has to perform as a mother and a public figure. Though she has become adept at ignoring the negative vibes sent her way, her natural motherly instincts make it a little more difficult for her to ignore how this might impact Palak. It’s a reminder of how even the strongest public figures can be vulnerable to the overwhelming pressures of social media and public opinion.
