A celebrity always attracts with him a huge fan following. With so many followers there will always be people who will hate you or saying in a more real tone won’t resonate with your thoughts.

There is bound to be difference of opinions, likings and disliking and a lot of trolling. This is a trend everywhere in the world and so in India.

While some celebrities are just trolls, others are roasted. Here is a list of five of the most trolled celebrities in India.

1) Salman Khan.

Salman Khan a.k.a. Bhai of Bollywood has been in the news and on people’s tweets for too many reasons. He has faced controversy regarding relationship with various actresses, killing black buck, allegations of driving over people on footpath and what not.

The web is filled with trolls of Salman Khan Doing round every other day. Whatever he does attract huge love, hatred and trolls.

2) Akshay Kumar.

One of the most hardworking actors of Bollywood, Akshay Kumar is also a regular among Indian trolls. Whether it is about doing huge number of movies in a single year or about his Canadian citizenship, Akshay is trolled widely.

His various cuts in Phir Hera Pheri are used in making memes, sometimes against him. His choice of films like Mission Mangal, Padman also attract many trolls.

3) Sanjay Manjrekar.

This is a guy who deserves to be trolled. People learn from their mistakes and become mature and start understanding things better but Sanjay is not among them.

His love for the cricketers from Mumbai, his comments on Ravindra Jadeja when he called him a bits and pieces cricketer and was then humiliated publicly all taught him nothing.

He went on to take a jibe at the best cricket commentator in the world, “Harsha Bhogle”, saying that he needs to ask the players everything as he has not played any cricket.

All these comments made in bad faith bring a lot of trolls to Mr. Manjrekar and no one knows when he will learn from it.

4) Anushka Sharma.

Being a high prolific actress and the wife of the world’s best cricketers is bound to attract a lot of people to comment on everything you do.

Anushka Sharma has been targeted by many on the accounts of influencing team selection and breaking the BCCI policies but none have been proven right.

It takes a strong character to stand up to these trolls and how graciously Anushka Sharma handles her troll is in itself a great example.

5) Rahul Gandhi.

Referred by many as Pappu, Rahul Gandhi, one of the major political leaders of congress party, is a daily material for trolls.

Sometimes because of his own comments and sometimes because of the under achievements of his party, Rahul Gandhi is trolled very badly.

Being a political leader at such a high position is not a very easy job, it has a lot of pressure and crumbling under this pressure is bound to get the attention of trolls.

A lot of this affects one mentally, when he/she receives troll comments from a random person on the internet. It has a stupid power to somehow affect whole of your mood and a lot more things going on in your life.

1) Ignore them.

This is a very basic step. Most of the trolls are useless. All they are is like useless noise which has no meaningful message to understand. It is best to ignore them.

2) Take constructive criticism.

Although most of the trolls are useless but if you are being targeted over a specific issue a number of times then you may try and reflect back on it a bit.

Who knows, it might be a blessing in disguise and you get a chance to improve yourself.

3) Use moderating tools.

Various moderating tools are available on each platform to filter out and ban such trolls. The tools can detect the spam comments and fake accounts and thus they can be banned from doing any more activity on your account.

4) Every once in a while, reply.

Yes, sometimes it becomes necessary to reply. But keep in mind that your reply should be a dignified one backed by proper facts and figures.

It keeps some trolls away as they fear being insulted on a public platform.

5) Build a friendly community.

Have faith in your community. Make your timeline a space which has good and interested users only. The organic users help a lot as sometimes they handle these trolls themselves.

Make your audience a part of your family.

6) Try a humorous reply.

Yup, humor is a much underrated aspect while replying. If you take a troll light-heartedly and reply to them with a witty and humorous reply, not only you get appreciation from your audience but also sometimes from that troll.

7) Discuss it with someone you trust.

If you really think that a troll is getting too much into your head, talk to someone who you trust and who knows you.

This really helps to reinstall in you that lost believe in yourself.

8) Take some time off the internet.

If it gets too toxic out there, there is no shame in logging off and spending some quality time in the real world with the people you love.

You should not allow these trolls to affect you mentally.

9) Analyze the reasons.

Analyze who really are these trolls and why they are targeting you. Most of the times the answer would be because they don’t have anything better to do but sometimes you might discover a real reason.

Cricket is a game that has been followed by billions of people around the globe. It is a spectacle that every fan loves to enjoy.

Cricket teaches us a lot

With so many fans, a proper enjoying experience can only be obtained if each and every rule of the game is known to the watchers. While it is a simple game to understand, and basic rules are clear to many, still there are things that most of the fans don’t know.

So here is a list of the cricket rules that are unknown to most people.

1) The 3 minute rule.

A rule that is unknown even to the most hardcore cricket fans is this 3 minute rule. According to this a batsmen is given a total time of 180 seconds to enter the field after the fall of a wicket.

In case the batsman is late, the umpire has the right to declare him retired hurt and call the next batsman in.
Because of this rule only, you see the next batsmen padded up so that he can quickly enter the field and the game is not paused for a long duration of time.

2) The game can be played without the bails.

Every set of a wicket in cricket has 3 stumps and 2 bails. A batsman is given out if the ball or the batsman hit the stumps and bails are dislodged.

But there have been some rare instances in cricket where the playing conditions did not allow for the bails to be placed on the stumps. Conditions like too much wind.

In those instances the umpires can allow the game to be continued without the bails.

3) Appealing is necessary.

Although it rarely happens that the bowlers and fielders don’t appeal but when it does the umpire cannot give the batsman out.

Yes, if the team has not appealed and the umpire feels that the batsman is out, he cannot give the batsman out according to the rules.

Therefore, appealing is necessary.

4) The dimensions of a cricket field.

Cricket is one of those rare games where the size of the boundaries is not set. Different grounds in different countries have different ground dimensions.

But one thing cricket is pretty disciplined about are the dimensions of the ball, the distance between the front and back crease and the pitch size.

These have been the same since the game’s origin and the rule remains.

5) Hitting the ball twice.

If a batsman hits the ball twice then he can be given out. Although this happens rarely in international cricket but it is a rule for the sake of the game.

There have been very few incidents of such happening and it is very tough to do such an act intentionally as sometimes it just happens without conscious.

These were some of the rules that people don’t know because they are rarely used in our game.

Relationships are an important aspect of one’s life. They knowingly or unknowingly play a part in shaping your future. If you have got a good life partner, your life will be a bit more sorted and a whole lot beautiful.

Representational Image

Men, just like women carry specific expectations from their life partner, here are some of them.

Representational Image

Men, unlike women don’t care much about how they carry themselves. They just get out of the bed, wear anything that gets caught in their hand and walk out.

That’s how men operate most of the time and they want their partner to understand their casual approach to fashion and styling.

2) To understand that they can’t express it.

Men are far less evolved than women when it comes to expressing feelings. They never know how to say the right thing at the right moment.

They wish their partner can understand this, that although they do not express it well but they love them the most.

3) To give them the space to enjoy with other friends.

Men expect this, although they love to show you off to their friends but sometimes they want that they can be alone with their friends.

They want freedom from their partner, just to chill out the old ways.

4) To accept their craziness when it comes to their favorite sports.

Men are too much passionate about sports. Whether cricket or football or any other game they will watch whenever it is aired.

Men expect their partners to accept this crazy passionate side of theirs.

5) To make them feel loved constantly.

Men in general lack self belief when it comes to love. They always think that their partners deserve better than them.

Thus, they expect constant reassurance from their partner.

6) To not judge them from the conversations they have with their friends.

Men usually talk stupid things while talking with other men. That’s kind of a ritual, a way their communication usually flows.

They don’t always themselves like what they discuss, but they have to be a part of that. They expect not to be judged on the basis of such conversations.

7) To listen to their sorrows.

Men are mostly good at not showing how much some things hurt them but they are completely vulnerable when they fall in love.

They want to tell their partner about that dream which they could not follow, about how bad things are at home, about how rough it has been. They want their partners to listen to their sorrows as they are too manly to tell it to someone else.

8) To share your deepest secrets with them.

Women are a lot more conservative when it comes to sharing things. Men love it when they share something with them that is very close to their heart.

Something that only they know, may be a childhood story or something from their past which they have been hiding for a long time.

9) To develop an interest in something they love.

This is never a necessity. This is one of those things that you do when you want to go that extra mile. Men really feel special when you show even a little interest in the things that they love.

It makes them feel special.

10) To forgive them and stay with them.

Yes, men do so many mistakes. They always do something wrong when almost everything is going perfect. They get angry at stupid things, they are easily frustrated and sometimes they take it out on their partners, which is indeed very wrong.

And they understand that and are sorry for that and they want their partner to forgive them for being so stupid and just stay with them, always.
