While the pandemic took a toll last year and affected everyone in different ways, Trolling of celebs on social media took on another level. Arbaaz Khan, who too has been bullied and trolled online, admits he doesn’t take it seriously as his “peace of mind is of importance”.
There was a big section of people, like a wave, who trolled celebs. It became trendy to go after celebs because of the kind of brainwashing that happened due to certain media channels. It was a pandemic in its own way. It was fashionable to go after celebs, who are achievers or even ones who aren’t doing much- it was all so disturbing. Some handled it graceful, some lashed out, others were upset and some ignored it. It was unfortunate and taught us a lot, says the actor, who feels sometimes certain things happen to teach us a lesson.
“Last year, taught us the magnitude of social media and how it affects lives. It is no more about posting fun pics, about dining or travel. We are all accountable for whatever we do online. There is a sense of responsibility as well,” shares Khan.
