At times, it gets difficult to deal with your own fans indulging in trolling: Kanwar Dhillon of ‘Pandya Store'

Star Plus show ‘Pandya Store’ has a unique ongoing track which revolves around Raavi vowing to educate Shiva as he left his studies as a sacrifice as his brother Gautam wasn’t able to take care of the expanse of bringing up his three young brothers. Probably, for the first time on Indian television, men’s education is discussed.

While the story of the show is quite interesting, recently a full-blown offscreen controversy occurred as Shiva-Raavi fans attacked Shiny Doshi (Dhara) and Rishita (Simran Budharup) on social media. They were subjected to trolls and negative comments. Both Shiny and Simran condemned the fans for crossing their limits. Shiva and Raavi played by actors Kanwar Dhillon and Alice Kaushik also extended their support to their co-actors and reprimanded the fans for crossing their limits.

India Forums got in touch with Kanwar and asked his thoughts on dealing with such situations. He said, “The fans have been showering a lot of love on me. They’ve become an integral part of my life. Many of them have stuck with me throughout my journey and I do know a few of them by their names. Having said that, there are also some young kids who get overboard and feel possessive and end up trolling other actors from the show. Honestly, at times it gets difficult to handle the situation, but people who know me, know that I know how to strike a balance. Whenever anything like this has happened, I have come forth and condemned it. I don’t support cyber-bullying and trolling specially when it’s done at my cost. Sometimes it’s scary, but I think one should have the knack of handling it and as a responsible artist I know how to strike a balance and deal with it”.
