In a recent incident, Harsh Varrdhan Kapoor, son of veteran Bollywood actor Anil Kapoor, has taken to addressing his critics on social media platform X. Despite featuring in a handful of well-received films, Harsh Varrdhan has struggled to establish a significant presence in the film industry, unlike his siblings.
A particular troll aimed Harsh Varrdhan, suggesting that he should focus on making ‘respectable’ films rather than indulging in luxury purchases funded by his father’s wealth.
Manchester City .. like a ponzi scam .. one day the bubble will burst all the lies will be revealed .. pep will leave and they will fade.. they don’t have many real fans they don’t have a real history.. just hope when they fade were In a good place to dominate for a few years

Harsh Varddhan Kapoor Gave A Fitting Reply
In response, the actor challenged the troll’s credibility by questioning their own body of work in comparison to his own, which includes films such as “Ray,” “Bhavesh Joshi,” “AK vs AK,” and “Mirzya.” He dismissed the critic as an insignificant individual resorting to bitterness on social media, even drawing attention to their apparent affinity for football teams that gain financial backing from wealthy investors.
Where can I watch your films ? How many have you done ? I’ve done Ray thar bhavesh joshi and Ak vs ak , mirzya .. who are you ? An irrelevant loser who’s bitter on twitter who started supporting city once they got Rich with Arab money .. https://t.co/2VikQBa2dB

The exchange didn’t end there, as Harsh Varrdhan continued to engage with other detractors, prompting some to retract their original comments.
Addressing another user who compared his online behavior to that of a notorious film critic, Harsh Varrdhan clarified that he was responding to personal attacks rather than offering film critiques. He also pointed out the irony of the user’s familiarity with the critic’s reviews.

In another instance, when confronted with a derogatory remark about his attendance at sporting events, Harsh Varrdhan didn’t hesitate to call out the user’s racial slur. His responses on social media mirror the criticisms faced by his sister, Sonam Kapoor, regarding their perceived disconnect from reality and privileged perspectives.
