Rishi Kapoor on Twitter is feared by his fans and trolls alike. His mercurial Twitter presence recently made an appearance again, and this time, it was uglier. So Kapoor recently tweeted that he wanted to watch the Pakistan Supreme League (PSL) and asked his followers what channel was it getting aired. Close on heels was his warning — “Any wise cracks and you are blocked”.

And that’s exactly what happened. Many Twitter users quickly got to trolling the 64-year-old actor and he, and as he had warned initially, Kapoor wasted no time in blocking them! But right before he did, he made it a point to retweet their replies and give them a fitting response — in the quintessential Rishi Kapoor way!

Just like the two sides of a coin, his post did not just attract trolls. The actor warmed up to genuine replies from Twitter users and at one point even the PSL Twitter handle.
The PSL Twitter handle informed the actor that it is not possible to watch the league in India, but that he could watch the live streamed matches on a particular website .
