 "#SrgayIsWorstActor: Shah Rukh Khan's critics hit a new low on Twitter")
Since discretion, intelligence or sensitivity are not the forte of several thousands of Twitter users, the virtual world got yet another glimpse of its distasteful side, thanks to a hashtag trending on Twitter in India. The tag #SrgayIsWorstActor is being used by many users to take potshots at the actor and his acting career, which just goes to show that the national obsession with Bollywood and its PR machine doesn’t protect stars from trolls.
