Actor Fardeen Khan has come out in open to hit back strongly at those targeting him for his weight.
The 42-year-old actor recently took to Facebook to backlash those poking fun at his expense and said he is living through the "happiest chapter" of his life, asserting he is neither "depressed" nor is he "ashamed" with his plumpness.
The 'Dulha Mil Gaya' actor also retorted saying if "mindless(ly) trolling" others make people feel better then they need to ponder over their "future prospects".
Talking about the rising trolling incidents on social media, the actor reflected, "This worldwide behavioral pattern on the internet is disturbing even though I believe in absolutely free speech and opinions."
Khan has been facing attack since a photo of him looking heavier, appeared on social media.
