Ranbir Kapoor recently opened up about dealing with negativity and also reacted to the trolls who call him toxic.
Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Ranbir’s fans shared a clip from a conversation where he said, “Hey, I’m not on social media, so I don’t have the need to deal with it, which is a great thing. But I feel negativity is very important, especially if you are an artiste and if you have some work out there, I think both need to exist because then that creates a balance. You know, sometimes a lot of things are written about you as an actor, a lot of opinions are made which are not necessarily true and you take it with a pinch of salt because this image of mine, which has been created by the movies or the characters I play or by media, is something that I don’t own.”
Ranbir added, “It’s owned by the public; it’s owned by people who like my work or dislike my work, and they are allowed to say anything about me as long as they give my work a chance, you know, as long as I can prove to them as an actor and that has always been my focus to act.”
The Brahmastra: Part One – Shiva actor was trolled on social media after Alia revealed in a video that she tries to keep her lipstick faded and minimal as her husband prefers it that way. In the video, she said, “One thing my husband...when he wasn’t my husband but when he was my boyfriend as well... he would be like ‘wipe that off, wipe that off’ because he loves the natural colour of my lips.” Several netizens swamped down the comment section and called Ranbir a “toxic” husband and a “red flag”.
Talking about the trolling he faced, he said, “Recently, I was reading some article about being toxic and something relating to some statement I made, and I understand this. And I am on the side of the people who are fighting toxic masculinity; if they use me as the face of it, it’s fine because their fight is bigger than just me feeling sad about them having an opinion about what I said. I look at the larger picture,” he added.
