Southern actress Manjima Mohan says though she takes social media comments from her fans constructively, she never hesitates to hit back at trolls when they cross their limit. Manjima recently shut down a person, who made derogatory comments about actresses and their clothes on Twitter. She also said how her father, Vipin Mohan (cinematographer) was also proud of her. “My father felt proud about what I did. He actually called and appreciated me after reading the news on the web. I have been receiving a lot of good comments daily and a few, of course, would pass nasty remarks. But, that statement projected the entire industry in a bad light. That’s why I decided to hit back,” Manjima told PTI.
The 24-year-old actress, who made her debut in Tamil films with Gautham Menon’s Achcham Yenbathu Madamaiyada, says it is important for actors to interact with fans on social media. “You have to talk to fans to know their likes and consider it. Because they are the ones, who are going to come and support you. So, when I talk to them, I get to know what they expect from me, and I work on it. Some people are very rude, and if they cross the limit, I do react to it.” Manjima is currently awaiting the release of Tamil film Sathriyan, which is slated to hit screens this Friday.
From her acclaimed debut in Malayalam with Oru Vadakkan Selfie till now, Manjima has been choosing girl-next-door characters and the actress says she is comfortable doing suchroles. “I would never play a showing-off kind of character. There is a thin line between being glamorous and showing off. I would never ‘expose’ for any of my roles.” Though Manjima is busy with a bevy of projects in Tamil now, she is looking for good projects in Malayalam. “I would be happy to associate with the filmmakers there. Now, they all think I charge a hefty paycheck since I have begun working in Tamil and Telugu film industries. But, I don’t. Malayalam is my mother tongue, and I would love to work there.”
