#FanPower: Trending To Support Their Idols
In today's generation, trends are mightier than the sword because trends have the ability to make the common man's voice heard. Like-minded people from all-over the world join hands to tweet their displeasure endlessly until the invincible relent under their immense pressure. Yes, at times the desired result is not achieved, but the displeasure is made known, which would have otherwise gone unnoticed.
Despite their talent and best intentions, sometimes actors/reality TV stars are targeted by the channel they work for. While the celebs in question sometimes cannot react openly to such acts by the channel, their fans do and trend relentlessly, until the channels realize they cannot get away with arm-twisting.
Celebzoone rounds up 5 trends brought about by Indian twitterati in support of their idols:
4. #ShantanuMaheshwariRules: Immensely popular Shantanu Maheshwari trended for more than 24 hours (above Shahid Kapur's birthday & other national trends) when his die-hard fans felt that his track was being sidelined by V Channel in favor of another couple's in Channel V's Dil Dosti Dance'. Mr. Maheshwari who has a huge fan-following among youngsters and was well-loved for his role in D3, Mr. Maheshwari said, "I am simply overwhelmed at the love and affection my fans give me. Usually, it is the character that you play that gets noticed and appreciated. The popularity is just for the character you play. But when I noticed that the trending was for #ShantanuMaheshwariRules, it touched my heart".
