Kiara Advani recently opened up about receiving trolls after getting married to Sidharth Malhotra in an interview with Hindustan Times. The actress said that the trolling aggravated right after she got married and just before her film 'Satyaprem Ki Katha' was slated for release. She revealed it was her husband who helped her navigate through the difficult time and focus on the positive aspects of being in the Hindi film industry.


Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra got married on February 7, 2023 after meeting and falling in love on the sets of Shershah. They tied the knot at the magnificent Suryagarh Palace in Jaisalmer. The wedding was a private affair, attended only by close friends and family and largely out of the purview of any paparazzi. After the wedding, the duo took to Instagram to share a few select photos and videos from the ceremony.


As a rule, Kiara and Sidharth are quite private about their personal life and the actress was recently asked if her husband had ever asked her to not post their photos online. In response, she told Film Companion, “He didn't want us to post some of the wedding stuff that we posted, that video. There was a lot of debate about it. ” The actress said that while Sidharth had been reluctant about posting the video online, it was designer and stylist Manish Malhotra who had insisted that they should post it on social media. 


Kiara also recalled feeling a pressing sense of overwhelm after facing trolls right after their wedding. She was also indignant about people commenting on her married life, and expressing outrage about continuing to work in film and promoting her project 'Satyaprem Ki Katha' right after her marriage. “For the first time, I felt a sense of overbearing, overpowering me with social media during the time when Satyaprem Ki Katha was coming out. Because I was just married…. I felt like there was very weird negativity going on about certain scenes ‘Oh isne yeh kiu kia hai, woh kiu kia hai (why she is doing it now that she is married).' I just felt like 'Wait! What just happened here? This is all too new for me because, on one hand, people troll you for very ridiculous things, but now people were trolling you because you are a married actor, and people expect you to say or do certain things. That got to me slightly. I was not able to brush it off. It was really affecting me.”

Advani admitted that she is guilty of reading everything that is written about her on the internet, and that they do take a toll on her mental health at times. However, it was her husband, Sidharth who advised her to accept the inevitability of controversial perspectives, unsolicited advice and trollers on the internet and to just let things go. 

"There was a little bit of negativity that really got to me and I didn't even discuss it with my husband. He was the one who explained it to me. He said ‘Look there will always be these negative trollers…but if you’re gonna give so much importance to this, be sitting at home and crying and behaving like s**t has hit the roof right now. What's wrong with you? You don't know them. They don't know you. These could be like certain fans who did not like we got married. Just let it be. Why are you getting into it?"

Kiara said that Sidharth's wisdom and support had helped her tide over this difficult period. "I realised if he is so mature about it, why am I sitting and feeling all of these things? Thank God I have somebody who's got wisdom, maturity and experience in this matter to tell me don't give attention to this stuff,” the actor added.
