Vijay Varma on paid internet trolls
Vijay, while sharing his views on internet trolls, said, “What hurts me the most is that innocent people might think these comments are real, but some of it is so motivated and paid for, which has been the biggest shock. This is something that really needs to be addressed. Earlier, when a film released, people would talk about it, and friends would even argue over it. We didn’t have a platform to voice our opinions back then. But now, we live in a time when there is a platform and people say whatever they want to say and we can’t do anything about that. But something that has a monetary attachment to it, should be curbed.”
