Film critics are facing severe online harassment and abuse after giving unfavorable reviews to Ranveer Singh‘s latest release Dhurandhar. Multiple critics have taken to social media this week to expose the vile trolling they are being subjected to by organized troll armies. The industry’s silence on this matter has sparked fresh debate about how critics are expected to support films but receive no protection when they face brutal backlash for honest reviews.
The controversy erupted after several critics posted mixed to negative reviews of the Aditya Dhar directorial. What followed was a coordinated campaign of hate, abuse, and threats that flooded their social media accounts. The sheer volume and toxicity of the responses have shocked many in the entertainment industry.
Critics Call Out The Vile Treatment
One prominent film critic took to social media to express shock and disappointment at the current situation. “I can’t believe the filth so many critics here are being subjected to this week. A vile country, and a shitty industry that won’t stand up for critics but expects critics to stand up for them,” the critic wrote. The tweet perfectly captures the frustration of reviewers who are left to fend for themselves when troll armies attack them for doing their jobs honestly.
The post highlighted a major issue that has been brewing for years. Critics are often called upon to promote films, attend special screenings, and provide coverage for releases. However, when their professional assessment does not align with what fans or makers want to hear, they become targets of coordinated harassment campaigns. The industry’s refusal to condemn such behavior or protect critics has only emboldened these toxic elements.
Critics Refuse To Back Down
In a powerful follow up response, another critic made it clear that these intimidation tactics will not work. “Activate those filthy troll armies, come at us, play the victim, do whatever. Won’t stop us from doing our jobs. Whatever happens,” the critic declared defiantly. This brave stance has resonated with many in the film criticism community who are tired of being silenced by online mobs.
The response showcases the courage and professionalism that critics are maintaining despite facing personal attacks. Rather than being intimidated into silence or changing their honest assessments, they are standing firm on their duty to provide audiences with truthful reviews. This defiant message sends a clear signal that no amount of trolling will compromise the integrity of film criticism.
