New Delhi: Television heartthrob Karan Patel opens up about his approach to dealing with negativity in the public eye. With a steady attitude, Karan ignores the noise of criticism and says that he will not let the words of "stupid people" make him angry. In an interview with Galatta India, Karan talks about the time he was trolled after his wife Ankita had a miscarriage.
Talking about the troll, Karan Patel said, “I wouldn't say that it doesn't anger me. It does. But, I also realise that why am I wasting my anger on people who don't matter? These are those mouths that have nothing else better to do in life. If people have something better to do, they would rather take care of those things than comment on somebody else's things. I don't wanna boil my blood over senseless stupid people commenting, just because they have the ability to write and type.”
Giving an example, he said, “If dogs could type, even they would probably start commenting. That doesn't mean you start barking at every dog. So for me, those people don't matter.”
Karan Patel on Online Comments
Karan also offered his perspective on online comments. He said, “Honestly speaking, the comment is something that I have never been affected by. Be it good or bad. Because those are somebody's personal point of view about you, for you or regarding your work or whatever the particular post is for. That post is your point of view, So you put yours forward. They have the right to put theirs forward. If they don't match, they clash, and that's totally alright, acceptable. That's what social media is. You're good at your place, I am good at mine.”
