Abhishek Bachchan shows Twitter troll the art of graceful comebacks

On late Wednesday night, Abhishek Bachchan and Twitter user Karan Talwar, or  Bollywood G*ndu, who is famously known to troll celebrities, had a showdown that almost split the internet. While on one hand Twitter users love to troll Abhishek Bachchan, Twitterati thought Bollywood G*ndu may have just taken things too far. It all started with what seems like an innocent tweet.

To this tweet, Jr. Bachchan had a prompt, cheeky response:

@BollywoodGandu here are the answers: 1. Nowhere 2. For your skill set? Hell yeah! 3. I don’t know. I unfollowed you years ago.

And that’s when it all went downhill:

@BollywoodGandu wow!!! Great come back buddy. Never heard that before. Ouch!

If the conversation ended here, it would have probably been one of the many forgotten Twitter fights, however, Bollywood G*ndu decided to go one step further:

To that, Abhishek Bachchan decided to go all Karan Johar on the argument:

@BollywoodGandu and unlike you…. Whatever I am today is because if my family. And am very proud of that.

Obviously, Bollywood G*ndu retaliated with another tweet:

And finally, Bachchan Jr. had the last word:

@BollywoodGandu aww. That’s sweet thank you! Know what? You gained a few followers. Guess that means I made you a bit more famous! Congrats

Most of Twitterati sided with Abhishek Bachchan, calling Bollywood G*ndu cheap and not funny. While it’s pointless to take sides, you can’t deny the mature restraint with which Jr. Bachchan handled the situation.
