Troll, That’s My Bae: Kohli, Bips & Sid, 7 Celebs Who Took No Shit
Dear trolls, you don’t mess with these celebs’ love lives.
I’ve got your back, love.
In the social media world of trolls, you’ve got some Indian celebs who’ve fought and defended their loved ones this year. 2016, a year of heartbreaks, is also seen as the year when ‘celeb couples’ came out on social media to fight and defend their significant others.
This was the year when the trolls got trolled brutally yet beautifully by Indian celebs. #Burn
Virat Kohli’s Golden Tweet
Is this the tweet that got Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma back together?
God only knows.
But what we know is that it’s this tweet that made us all go ‘Aww’ and won a million hearts.
The cricketer showed his support to Anushka after the actress was trolled for India’s exit from the World T20. Kohli, just like his batting, beautifully smashed all the hate-tweeting trolls.
Sidharth Malhotra’s ‘Kamaal’ ka Tweet
The king of trolls Kamaal R Khan got a taste of his own medicine when he tried to troll Alia Bhatt and Sidharth Malhotra’s March’s Vogue edition. But to KRK’s bad luck, it was her rumoured beau Sidharth, who jumped into the ring and forced the ‘Deshdrohi’ actor to delete his tweet.
‘Kamaal’ hogaya!
Mohammed Shami Bowled Out Trolls
The Indian fast bowler Mohammed Shami was hit by a series of trolls after he posted a photograph of his wife and himself.
A normal person would look at the image the way it is and wish the couple well but not the trolls.
What the trolls saw was an ‘anti-Islamic’ photograph of his wife wearing a sleeveless dress.
Shami bowled a yorker at the trolls and in his sharafat andaaz told ’em to mind their own business.
Mayanti Langer Bats for Stuart Binny
Mayanti Langer was bullied online excessively for Stuart Binny’s disappointing performance in the T20 match between India and the West Indies in the USA. But the sports anchor bowled her bullies with some powerful tweets and won the game for the Binnys.
Bipasha Basu – That Don't Impress Me Much
Bipasha Basu’s husband Karan Singh Grover has been the trolls’ favourite bait. The actor has been trolled since the time he announced his third marriage to the Bengali beauty. But after posting a ‘loyalty’ message on Instagram, haters began to question KSG’s loyalty towards the actress.
And finally, Bipasha decided to shut the trolls down and not take any sh*t against her pati parmeshwar.
Haters just leave them ‘Alone’.
Karan Kundra Slams Female Troll
You can run but you cannot hide from trolls. And Karan Kundra wasn’t in a mood to do either. The TV actor slammed a follower for her unsavoury comments against his girlfriend VJ Anusha Dandekar on social media. Karan, who has no qualms expressing his love for Anusha on social media, rose to his lady love’s defence and said he’d rather not have followers who don’t respect women. #KudosToKaran
Well Done Suyyash Rai!
TV actors Suyyash Rai and Kishwer Merchant have shared super cute pre-wedding photographs on their social media accounts. They made their fans a part of their happy moments. But little did #Sukish (Suyyash + Kishwer) know that putting out wedding pictures would invite more trolls than blessings.
Suyyash like a dude, trolled the trolls who called Kishwer an old woman and an ‘aunty’. Well Nobody spoils #SukishKiShaadi.
