News headlines are a double-edged sword, where the negative ones travel far more than expected and Bollywood celebs like Mrunal Thakur and Priyanka Chopra have been a target of this.
Let’s take a look at Bollywood celebs who have been targeted and trolled online.
Mrunal Thakur
Mrunal Thakur has found herself all across the headlines because of clickbait-driven titles. The actress is facing public scrutiny after it was assumed that she took a dig at an A-lister actress, even though no names were taken and no films were mentioned. Headlines ending with a question mark planted a seed of doubt in the public’s mind and manufactured outrage.
Priyanka Chopra Jonas
After reigning supreme in Bollywood, Priyanka Chopra widened her stance in Hollywood, and this shift of hers made her a subject of negative chatter. In addition to this, she also found herself at the centre of chatter after a magazine allegedly edited her armpits beyond believable levels. What followed this was trolls attacking her relentlessly and igniting a debate about unrealistic beauty standards.
Triptii Dimri
Last year, Triptii Dimri found herself in the midst of a controversy, which alleged that the actress took money to appear at an event in Jaipur, but she did not turn up. The public defaced her posters at the event and even called for a boycott. However, she denied allegations of not turning up, setting it straight that she fully honoured professional obligations.
Taapsee Pannu
Taapsee Pannu has often found herself caught in online controversies and trolls, be it body shaming, commenting on her acting skills, or anything personal, but Taapsee has always shut them down with her savage responses. Once, a troll mentioned, “Tujhe acting to aati nahi, utha utha ke movie karti hai”. Giving a befitting reply, Taapsee said, “Exactly kya utha utha ke? Kyunki uthaya toh hai maine, standard but aapko shayad nahi samajh aaye.”
Such online soups often make B-town outsiders an easy target for trolls. However, their befitting replies prove that they’ve crafted their film careers on pure hardwork and efforts, and would never let the online negativity hamper it.
