Criticism has focused on his height smile and even his suitability to play a soldier in the sequel to the iconic 1997 film Border. Some reports suggest that part of the negative content on social media could be linked to paid PR campaigns designed to generate attention. Several content creators claimed they were approached to post critical videos and reels against the actor. Ishika Gagneja calls the hate heartbreaking The actress described the trolling as “heartbreaking” and emphasized that it was completely unjustified. She said “It was very heartbreaking when I saw it. To create such negativity and such hate towards someone just felt very wrong. I saw videos where people were talking about his smile. I mean a smile is a beautiful thing and to make fun of someone’s smile felt extremely wrong. Why would someone want to shame someone for the way they smile?” She added that judging an actor based on snippets rather than understanding the full story is unfair. “Only snippets of the film have been released so far. The full picture only comes after audiences watch the film and give feedback which is constructive and very important. But judging someone just on snippets without knowing the character’s backstory or what led to that moment feels unfair. People are creating hate just for views and likes.
