Shibani Dandekar recently opened up during an interview with an entertainment daily, and responding towards these trolls, saying that she doesn’t care what the trolls say on social media and she doesn’t always respond to them. But at times, she feels it is important to put some people in place, and they need to be told that their behaviour is out of order. She says that one can’t have someone shoot you down constantly on social media, as it is not a place for anyone to be judged and criticised by others. She said that Instagram is not a platform for anyone to be nasty and vile. If someone continues to be that way, they’ll be blocked, warned Shibani.
