Vivek Oberoi backs Salman Khan’s stand against trolls after he slammed trollers body-shaming him, Katrina Kaif: ‘There are a lot of positive things to do in life, negative mein kya pade ho’

Vivek Oberoi has spoken in support of Salman Khan’s recent comments on online trolling. Salman had called out social media users for body-shaming and age-shaming celebrities, questioning why people resort to abusing actors simply because they do not approve of their work.

Vivek said, "Kuch nahi yaar, mujhe lagta hai trolling wagera karna bhi nahi chahiye. Trolling is a very negative thing, and there are a lot of positive things to do in life kya negative mein padhe ho (Nothing, yaar.

I feel people shouldn’t troll others either. Trolling is a very negative thing, and there are so many positive things to do in life. Why get caught up in negativity?)."Salman had addressed the issue of online trolling during the latest Weekend Ka Vaar episode of 'Bigg Boss 20'.
