Ranbir Kapoor on online trolling
Before the release, Ranbir addressed the criticism and trolling around the film at an event organised by IIMUN (India International Movement to Unite Nations). He said he does not let online opinions affect him and prefers to focus on the people who genuinely support his work.He said, “What’s relevant today is this beauty of trolling online. It goes back to the good old song ‘Kuchh to log kahenge, logon ka kaam hai kehna (People will say something, it’s their job to say something or the other)’. I think that’s a great philosophy to actually follow in life. Don’t be bothered by what people are saying. What matters is the people who matter, the people who care for your work, your intention, and your kindness. That’s what matters the most.”
