Fardeen Khan slams body shaming social media trolls

NEW DELHI: Bollywood actor Fardeen Feroze Khan has blasted people for trolling him on social media platforms for his recent weight gain. The chocolate boy just recently became a victim of social media bashing for gaining a lot of weight.

Pictures of an overweight (not-so-in-shape) Fardeen Khan went viral on social media platforms a few days back, where people could not resist sending funny rather insulting and embarrassing comments on the actor’s surprise new look.

The Bollywood star also questioned the moral and ethical attitudes of people who have made trolling an international phenomenon without even realising that how badly it hurts people.

“For those of you who spoke against mindless trolling please raise your voices. this worldwide behavioural pattern on the internet is disturbing even though I believe in absolutely free speech and opinions,” he wrote adding that he has no doubt that 99% of the trolls on social media have absolutely no guts and that they are nothing but a bunch of cowards.

Fardeen Khan also thanked all those fans and well-wishers who have been constantly supporting him through their posts and messages on Twitter and Facebook.

“I can’t thank you enough but it was unnecessary as I am sure you are equally shocked and disappointed. I just want you all to know that after a very long time I am in a great space in my life. All I ask is for you to be happy for me and expect not to be disappointed for long,” wrote khan while addressing his fans.
