Trolls started to target Shilpa

"This is really cruel... I mean why torture the fish for nothing... If she wanted to eat it then it was okay, but she didn't... She was just enjoying... unacceptable," wrote an Instagrammer.

Justifying her actions, Shilpa said, "Dear Instafam, just want you guys to know that I'm a "non-vegetarian", I've made no bones abt it. But despite me being one, this fish isn't the kind one eats so I released it....Yes I did...And NO it DIDN'T DIE."
