# Janhvi Kapoor Stands Up for Brother Arjun Amid Brutal Online Trolling: "There's No Excuse for That Behavior" In a powerful show of sibling solidarity, **Janhvi Kapoor** has slammed the relentless online bullying her brother **Arjun Kapoor** has endured, declaring it crosses every line.[1][2][3] Janhvi opened up in an interview with *Grazia India*, diving deep into the toxic underbelly of social media where celebrities become easy targets for clicks and rage. "From what I understand about social media culture, everyone wants prominence, views and virality, so if they are making content about you, you're just a scapegoat, they're just using your name for clickbait, rage bait and whatever else it is to further their engagement," she explained. She added that once you see it for what it is—a transactional game for engagement—it stings less: "That's the only purpose you serve, and once you look at it from that lens, you understand that what they're saying about you has nothing to do with you. Then you start taking that less to your heart."[1][3][4] But Janhvi drew a firm line when it comes to her family. Speaking about the paid PR wars—both positive and negative—that plague the internet, she admitted she tries not to let it consume her. "Everyone's doing what they have to, sab ghar chalane ki koshish kar rahe hai. You need to be transactional – nothing is that deep. It's stupid to occupy your brain for more than five minutes with this," she said. Yet, watching Arjun face "bullying and harassment" hits differently: "Of course, it hurts to feel misunderstood or when it turns into bullying and harassment, the way I've seen happen with my brother sometimes and **there's no excuse for that kind of behaviour**. Negativity fuels negativity and you just have to remove yourself from it."[1][2][3][4] Arjun has been no stranger to this wave of trolling, especially over the past year, despite acclaim for his villainous turn in *Singham Again*. He's responded with cryptic Instagram posts like "If you keep going, you won't regret it. If you give up, you will," signaling his resilience amid the storm.[5] Janhvi's defense highlights a bigger issue: when does "criticism" turn into outright cruelty? Her words remind us that behind every public figure is a real person—and their family feels the pain too.
