Despite Apology AIB Fame Comedian Rohan Joshi Still Being BRUTALLY Trolled!

Despite Rohan Joshi going offline, the trolling and cyber-bullying on Twitter has not stopped

During this period of lockdown, several old videos of stand-up comedians have been surfacing on the internet. In most of the videos, the comedians were seen defaming cultural and historical icons of India. The videos went viral in no time and created a wave of vexation amongst people. Following this, comedian Rohan Joshi has gone offline after being at the receiving end of abuses and threats, but the trolling has not stopped. Earlier this week, Joshi, co-founder of the now defunct comedy group AIB, revealed that he has deactivated his Twitter account. In an Instagram post, he wrote: "Going offline for a few days. Number and address have been leaked, so the last few days have been a circus of abuse, threats, 2 am phone calls and anxious spirals. See you on the other side whenever I guess. I'm sorry if I offended anyone's sentiments with my words and I apologise without any qualifications and reservations for any words I have spoken that have hurt someone's religious sentiments. Please leave my family alone."

It's actually a fascist regime where we don't have freedom of speech". It's their usual victim card."

"Be it #VirDas, #RohanJoshi or #AgrimaJoshua, all of them have victimised someone or the other in their so-called comedy shows. And now, they're whining of being one. This is what hypocrisy is," pointed one user.

Well, their #VictimCard comes with a lifetime validity.

There were some who defended him. "No one deserves to live (or die) in a constant state of fear and stress. People in this country only value other people after they actually do something huge like Suicide. Specially artists," wrote one user.
