Dhruv Rathee Denies Targeting Janhvi Kapoor Over Post

Desk Correspondent , Mumbai - YouTuber Dhruv Rathee has addressed viral claims suggesting he targeted Bollywood actress Janhvi Kapoor following her social media post about the lynching of Dipu Chandra in Bangladesh. The controversy began after Janhvi shared a story expressing grief over the tragic incident, leading to a heated debate online regarding the timing and nature of public reactions. Rathee, known for his social commentary videos, faced criticism from some social media users who accused him of singling out the actress for her stance on the ongoing unrest in the neighboring country.

In a clear response to the allegations, Rathee clarified that his recent comments were not directed at any specific individual but were part of a broader discussion on selective outrage and misinformation. He urged his audience not to get distracted by fake news or manufactured rivalries between public figures. Addressing the situation on his platform, Dhruv Rathee stated, "I have not targeted any specific actress; people are trying to create a false narrative to stir up unnecessary controversy." He emphasized the importance of focusing on facts rather than online rumors that aim to polarize the public.

Meanwhile, Janhvi Kapoor’s original post continues to be shared by those demanding justice for the victims of violence in Bangladesh. The clash between different online communities highlights the sensitive nature of discussing international human rights issues on social media. A source close to the developments remarked, "Public figures often find themselves at the center of intense scrutiny when they speak on sensitive political or communal tragedies." As both sides clarify their positions, the incident serves as a reminder of how quickly digital conversations can turn into personal confrontations during times of global tension.
