Sushmita Sen is the most recent victim to take the abuse, called a gold seeker for dating tycoon Lalit Modi. The trolls aren't certain of her standing, thus, labelling her a gold digger is nothing less than a joke. The former Miss Universe, however, gave it back to the trolls in full force and made it obvious that she is financially independent of males.
