Niti Taylor on Trolls: If You’re Not Trolled, You’re Not Seen
Actress Niti Taylor says online trolling is part of a public career and that she focuses on her work and supporters rather than negativity after her stint on Alliance.
Mumbai: Actress Niti Taylor, who recently appeared on the reality show Alliance, has spoken about how she deals with online trolls and said her perspective on the issue has changed over the years.
In an exclusive conversation with IANS, the Kaisi Yeh Yaariaan actress said she now sees trolling as often a sign that one is being noticed. She is no longer deeply affected by the negativity and has made a conscious choice to focus on her work and her supporters.
“These are just faces behind computers and phones, who do not like to see others happy, as their own life is not going too well. I also feel that trolling is a part of your success story. So it is okay—if you people are not going to troll us, we might not be seen. So, whatever is happening, I think it is a part and parcel of life,” she said.
Her journey on Alliance involved emotional highs and lows as well as unexpected friendships. One of the more notable turns was her shift from a difficult start with co-contestant Kushal Tandon to a closer bond built through honest conversations during the show.
Alliance, which streamed on Prime Video, featured a mix of actors, influencers, gamers and entertainers. Contestants included Ravi Kishan and Riva Kishan, Niti Taylor and Ruhee Dosani, Kushal Tandon and Arslan Goni, Daisy Shah and Zaid Darbar, Mini Mathur and Nikhil Chinapa, Delbar Arya and Armaan Khera, Payal Dhare (Payal Gaming) and Sabby Suri, and Vanshaj Singh and Dolly Javed, along with wildcards Sohail Khan, Seema Sajdeh, Aly Goni, Kashish Kapoor and Bali. Mini Mathur emerged as the winner.
Taylor’s comments framed online criticism as an almost inevitable cost of visibility in the public eye, while her account of the show underlined personal growth and unexpected alliances inside the competition.
