Mohanlal Reveals Why He Doesn’t Waste Time Reacting To Every Rumour

Celebrities are bound to be involved in controversies. While many chose to clarify all the rumours around them, there are some people from industry who chose to stay away from all the hassle. One such superstar is Mohanlal, who says that he doesn’t feel it's worth to waste time in responding to every rumour involving him.

The Mollywood actor told TOI, “You feel hurt when I hear things which you are supposed to have said, which you wouldn't even have given a thought to. But if you start responding to such claims, it will only snowball into bigger debates. Most problems occur when you respond to something. But at times, you tend to respond as a reflex action”.

Further, the superstar added that most of the controversies usually begin on social media and replying to each one of them is not “worth it” in his opinion. “The amount of time they waste on morphing images just to irritate or tarnish somebody's reputation is unbelievable! Recently I read the book When Breath Becomes Air, which talks about death and one's last moments. Our breath becomes air at a moment's notice and the instant before that is when we think about love, people, friends, God and how much time we have wasted. Time is important and people should use it positively. I believe so”, he stated.

He clarified that his no-response-policy shall not be taken wrongly. “That doesn't mean people can attack me with their words and actions. But you become seasoned and lose interest in responding, over time. A lot of people unnecessarily write things about me, file legal cases against me and make trolls on social media. This happens to all celebrities; I just consider it an occupational hazard”, Mohanlal said.
