Maheep Kapoor Won A Face Of Empowerment Award And Internet Users Can’t Wrap Their Heads Around It!

Digital detox has become a common phenomenon and practice as people spend most of their hours surfing through platforms like Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, Twitter etc. With all that is happening, the positives and the negatives both have shown digital detox as a thing that is opted for, by many, so much so that people have started commemorating digital detox day by talking about the same and discussing how one can empower themselves by avoiding the toxicity on the internet. In Mumbai, as digital detox day was being commemorated in Raj Bhavan, the governor’s estate, Maheep Kapoor was honoured with the ‘Face of Empowerment’ award by Bhagat Singh Koshiyari, the governor of Maharashtra.

Many know Maheep Kapoor as a jewellery designer and of course, Sanjay Kapoor’s wife who aced with her sparkle on the Netflix show Fabulous Lives Of Bollywood Wives. Simply put, she is a celebrity Icon and a well-known socialite. Felicitating such celebrities has been an age-old tradition and felicitating women who are leading in their professions is also something that has always been welcomed with open arms. But, many internet users were left confused when they heard about Maheep Kapoor receiving an award for empowerment.

They were of course, quick to highlight that Maheep Kapoor hasn’t done anything major in the arena of philanthropy or even advocacy for the empowerment of any section of society. People were left puzzled about the criteria on which she has presented this award, whether she has done any work concerning the same but kept it under the radar or has been felicitated for just being a rich celebrity socialite. Expectedly, the trolling came right after this confusion.

Naturally, the trolling started with the most savage social media platform i.e. Twitter. Things got a little too real and here’s what Twitter has to say on the matter:
