Another troll, posed a particularly inappropriate question, inquiring about whether the actress has ever tried her hand at a navel piercing. Malavika shut down the individual behind the keyboard with her response, which read, "Well, you’re looking for a kink-appeasing Q&A and I’m looking for an intellectually fun one. We’re on 2 entirely different pages." Another question asked the actress at what point in her career, would she stop spending time on 'glamour shows'. To this, Malavika simply said, "Never. Got a problem with that?"

While there were the usual set of detractors, there were also genuine fans of the actress, who posed worthy questions. Some inquiries in particular, were about her next project, the Chiyaan Vikram starrer Thangalaan. Some of Malavika's responses explained how she had always wanted to try her hand in the action genre, a desire which saw fruition with Thangalaan. However, Malavika also made it clear that the film is in no way, a mindless action flick.

She responded, "I always wanted to try out my hand at action, and with #thangalaan I got to do exactly that...Also I would say thangalaan is more story driven and not mindless action, so it’s still enagaging to watch it when action is ingrained into the narrative & not put in a formulaic way."
