If you are in the media space or in a space where you need direct connectivity with people and need their opinion, feedback, thoughts or feelings, then it is very relevant and important on social media  HE admits that like “anybody else”, initially, “it (negative things online) can bother you”.

“But you have to rise above it and go to a place of complete indifference and amusement which is what he did. He stepped aside and thought, ‘these faceless and nameless people must be lonely and unhappy’. So, they can’t bear the sight of somebody’s success so he  has had people say weird things about him, his  sexuality and even his  pouts ” says Karan..

“If he has 20 million followers, on Instagram and Twitter, then it’s also a very strong marketing tool. he  won’t say, ‘oh, I am here only for the love of my fans and all.’ No, I am also here to promote my work.
