For the <em>Raqs-e-Bismil <\/em>protagonist, this was a heart-warming moment captured beautifully. Many of Imran\u2019s 3.1 M followers echoed the same. But some took the opportunity to troll the <em>Mushk <\/em>hero for his performance. And Ashraf\u2019s response is a lesson on how to deal with trolls, especially as a celebrity. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>Meri phupo bhi aise acting karti hai<\/em> (My aunt can act like this),\u201d commented an Instagram user on the video to which Imran quickly clapped back, calling out the individual for mocking him and schooling him for also indirectly making fun of his own kin. \u201cY<em>aar tumharay baap ki bahan hai. Uski tou izzat karo. Social media par bhi nah ichor rahay baichari ko <\/em>(Dude, she\u2019s your father\u2019s sister. Have some respect. You\u2019re not leaving the poor woman alone even on social media),\u201d responded the <em>Dum Mastam <\/em>star.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Ashraf unknowingly presents a simple but effective way to deal with hate online, especially in the age of political correctness. The actor\u2019s response highlights his tolerance for criticism and also exhibits how trolls can be left speechless when trolled in return. Ashraf also redefines trolling by towing the line of confronting and respectfully educating. He further proves why it\u2019s not always important to give explanations or defend oneself.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async defer crossorigin=\"anonymous\" src=\"https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/sdk.js#xfbml=1&#038;version=v5.0&#038;appId=419051588770002&#038;autoLogAppEvents=1\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recently, Imran Ashraf took to his Instagram to share a video of his son Roham sitting at his feet and attempting to tie his father\u2019s untied shoelaces.
