Three years ago, Dhruv Rathee appeared on Ranveer Allahbadia’s show ‘The Ranveer Show’. The two popular YouTubers spoke at length about politics, social media, criticism and much more. During the conversation, Ranveer spoke about online hate. For the unversed, Ranveer had faced criticism when he commented on Aamir Khan‘s transformation for Dangal. Recalling the same, he mentioned that the entire situation affected him severely and that was the time point when he realised the impact of internet. He said, “The whole world of Bollywood was hating me. Aamir Khan’s trainer also made a video. At that time, it affected me a lot. I was 23 and had never seen such hate in life. I did not know the strength of internet as you can receive over night fame or can face tsunami of hate.” While narrating the incident Ranveer also recalled how his alleged girlfriend supported him.
Dhruv Rathee and Ranveer Allahbadia’s podcast is once again attracting attention and comments from viewers. One of the comments on the video read, “Mr. Ranveer, I have been following you since you started growing on YouTube, always admiring your positive energy. However, your actions on India’s Got Talent have revealed your true self. I am deeply disappointed and ashamed to see you involved in such negative content.”
