Actor Neil Nitin Mukesh, who has been a victim of social media trolls several times, says while the negative comments do not bother him, his family sometimes gets upset over them. Neil has been criticised on social media several times with users taking a dig at his acting skills, and making fun of his name.

Does he get affected?
“Not at all. It upsets my family at times I am the one who is pacifying and telling them not to get upset,” Neil said. The 34-year-old star asserts that sometimes people troll celebrities to gain attention.

“I had this one man who was constantly abusing me on Twitter. Every single day he would abuse me. I would ignore it to a point, but one day the timeline had only abuses. I just responded and said ‘What’s the problem buddy?’ and he replied saying ‘I was just trying to get your attention. I am such a big fan of yours’.”

The actor added that his father gets “really upset” over why their names are often dragged into unwanted controversies. “My father (Nitin Mukesh) is an old-school person, so he gets really upset. He is like ‘Why my father’s name and your father’s name being dragged into a controversy as far as your name is concerned’,” said Neil.
