Filmmaker Karan Johar took the high road after a social media user called him a 'chhaka (eunuch) on Twitter, and asked him to get well soon.
Commenting on a video of Karan's interview with a journalist, a user wrote: "So a chhaka is interviewing another chhaka."
To this, Karan tweeted: "A very happy Sunday to you....I hope you recover quickly....Don't forget your medicines! Also make sure you gargle..."
This is not the first time that Karan has become a subject for online trolls. In an interview in the past, the filmmaker had said that his Twitter feed is filled with posts questioning his sexuality.
