Many sent (heart emjoi) and (fire emoji)… I refuse to fit in to any box, just like I refuse to suck in my well earned belly.2020 here I come,” she wrote on Twitter.
Mohapatra continued: “Grateful for all writing in. The first category of people show themselves to the rest of the world and hopefully someone in their life”s will teach them the concept of ”consent” and how clothes or lack of them doesn”t justify anyone attacking a woman. The second category of people should throw away any notion of me living up to their idea of an intense, thinking, serious, loving and therefore only khadi or fully covered woman, your ”sanskari”pan or idea of ”worthy woman” is not mine, no apologies from me therefore.”
The singer then went on to send love to her admirers. “For the third lot who sent me love, right back at you! You give me strength everyday. I hear the music. I hear a beat. From the universe around. From within. Own your spirit. Own your journey. Own your belly. Don”t suck any of it… 2020 here I Come,” she said.
