SAY WHAT? This Actor Has BLOCKED A Whopping 5,000 People On Twitter

If there is one actor who, more often than not, stirs a controversy with his thoughts on social media, it’s Rishi Kapoor. The senior actor has been trolled several times over his tweets, but he is unapologetic about what he puts out there.

Making it clear that he won’t let anyone dictate to him about what he needs to tweet or post on social media, Rishi told a leading newspaper, “Main woh karunga, woh likhunga jo mera mann chahega (I will do and say and write whatever my heart tells me to do). I have the freedom of expression. This is a democracy, and I can say what I want to and what I feel.”

He added, “As long as I am not offending someone personally, or I am not agitating against anything that’s a delicate matter, I don’t think that anyone should have a problem with what I say.”

When asked about the number of times he has been embroiled in a war of words on Twitter, Rishi retorted, “Who cares! Do you think I give a damn to these trolls or what they say? These so-called trolls feel very important if you [any celebrity] react or respond to their tweet. So, I don’t let them have that moment of joy. Everything is okay but the moment you abuse me, or you offend me, I would do nothing but simply block you. That means you can no longer follow me or see what I am doing. Either you create a new account, start tweeting and then follow me again. So, you lose me for that period.”

Talking about the strategy to keep negativity away from his timeline, Rishi revealed that he has blocked over 5,000 people on Twitter. “Jisne koi gadbad ki, ya meri family ke bare main kuch kaha ya kuch bhi galat cheez likhi (if anyone dares to take a dig at my family members or write anything mean on my Twitter timeline), I will block him/her. I don’t want this kind of bad influence on my Twitter timeline. I believe that one bad fish spoils the other lot as well, and since I don’t want this to go on, it’s easier for me to block that person, and then they don’t get to talk to me.”
