Aly Goni condemns trolling

Actor Aly Goni shared a heartfelt video message, expressing both concern and anger at those who mocked Anurag Dobhal after he opened up about his mental health.

Aly Goni said, “Uss ladke ne apni ek video daali, apne aap ko zahir kiya logon ke saamne ki uski life mein joh bhi chal raha hai. Chalo, family matter hai interfere nahi karna chahiye, but uss ladke ne apne aap ko zahir kiya apne fans ke saamne aur unhone kya diya return mein? Hasi mazak troll.”

He added, “Sad reality. Shame on you people for making fun of him. Aap sab ko upar wala dekh raha hai. I hope he is fine. God bless him.”

Munawar Faruqui urges sensitivity

Munawar Faruqui also reached out. He said, “As far as Anurag is concerned, when I saw the first video, I tried reaching out and spoke to the closest person. I got to know a lot of things. And I told him to take care. What can we do about it? It is not in our hands. No one can solve a family problem. You guys take care. We hope that he stays fine always.”

Calling for compassion online, Munawar Faruqui added, “You will find 50 things to joke about. But consider certain things. Don't make the internet a place where you can't see someone's sorrow. So, trolls, chill!”

In another message, he stressed, “This (suicide) is not a solution to your life. If you are worried, suiide is not the answer. If you are worried or going through a tough situation, don't attempt such a thing.”

Abhishek Malhan, Rajiv Adatia and Rajat Dalal also expressed concern and prayers for Anurag Dobhal’s recovery.

The episode has once again highlighted the pressures of public life and the importance of treating conversations around mental health with empathy rather than ridicule.
