Janhvi Kapoor opens up about trolling and gaining respect of the masses
- IndiaGlitz, [Saturday,October 29 2022]
In this age of social media, it is very easy for celebs and public figures to become targets of trolls. Talking about Bollywood, mainstream actors and particularly starkids are most vulnerable to online trolling and harrasment. In a recent interview with ETimes, actress Janhvi Kapoor shared that she got an easy break in the industry because of her parents' influence but now she is working and pushing herself to receive respect of audience as well.
She said, Well, if I don't push myself then someone else will- and I will regret it. And, it is my age to push myself. I got the chance easily but izzat nahin mili toh main woh izzat ke liye mehenat kar rahi hoon (I didn'tget respect so I am working hard to earn that). I felt very guilty about cancelling the interviews yesterday but I really wasn't feeling well. To be honest, I want much more than I have achieved. I know I have a lot more to offer.
Coming to the topic of trolling and hatred, Janhvi said, I think everyone has become a favourite of trolls. Nobody deserves the amount of trolling that is happening. And I think the media portals are responsible for this. By writing those three nasty and negative comments of trolls on their headlines, they are only encouraging trolling. Why are they filtering just the negative comments and highlighting them? This is just not done. If someone can correct this wrong approach by the media, maybe we'll sleep well. Anyway, I have reached a point where nothing is going to shake me up. I die for the public's love and acceptance, though.
