Sometime back, Sushmita was bashed on social media over the fact that she was sending oxygen to Delhi rather giving it to Mumbai. Replying to the person who made such claim, she wrote, "Because mumbai still has oxygen cylinders available, that’s how I found it. Delhi needs it, especially these smaller hospitals, so help if you can."
The popular actress from the 2000 era was absent from the big screen for quite a long time. Her comeback came in the form of the web series 'Aarya' which hit the OTT platform Disney+Hotstar last year.
