'Don't Give Trolls Importance': Kiara Advani Shares Sidharth Malhotra's Advice

Kiara Advani has openly discussed the emotional impact of online trolling in her marriage to Sidharth Malhotra and has found that the negativity was very damaging at first. But her husband’s calm and mature manner of thinking helped her think in a better light.

Kiara reflected on the experience and said that the torrent of comments and trolling after their wedding was just so hard to ignore. And like many public figures, she was hurt by the harsh words of strangers on social media.

Kiara, instead of reacting publicly or allowing the criticism to consume her, turned to Sidharth for help. He told her not to give unnecessary weight to people who had no personal relation with her, she said.

Sidharth said that some people trolling them on social media were either unhappy with their marriage or just angry at themselves online. He assured her that such responses were temporary and people would eventually move on to something else.

Kiara’s advice, she said, completely changed the way she viewed online hate. And instead of getting all these negative comments about her, she became more concerned with her own peace of mind and not having anonymous opinions affect her happiness.

Her comments have been praised by many fans who praised the couple for being mature in view of social media criticism: the actress' comments resonated with their maturity in dealing with criticism on social media. Although celebrities are often subjected to public criticism, Kiara’s experience is just a good example of the emotional burden of fame in light of the pressures of fame, so we’re all human in how to deal with it.

Mental health professionals have long emphasized to people in the field of psychiatry that keeping boundaries with social media and not engaging in too much negativity-seeking online activity is to be avoided always. Kiara’s thoughts are consistent with that message, and the support from loved ones can make a huge difference when faced with public criticism too.

And her story is a cautionary tale: not every negative comment needs to be answered. One might sometimes decide not to respond in order to protect one’s emotional health.

Kiara and Sidharth continue to be one of Bollywood’s most celebrated couples and the actress’ honest story gives us an insight into celebrity life as it really is outside of the glamour. The actress’s biggest lesson for her was simple and powerful: peace comes not from answering every critic, but from refusing to let online negativity define your happiness.
