Not unemployed people like you,” while addressing Abhishek. The actor decided to give it back to the troll witha witty response.

They (trolls) attack him all the time and it's really upsetting for your family member, that really boils my blood. I don't really care about any of these, that's bothering you guys but this really upsets me. I don't like when they do it to him because, you know what, it's not fair…you don’t do that! Just… I don't wanna discuss it. That really bugs me maybe because he is my younger brother and I am all protective.”

On the work front, Abhishek will be next seen in 'Breathe: Into the Shadows' season 3.
