The actor also remains one of the most trolled personalities on social media. It all started in December 2014, when the Twitterati moved on to babuji's after trolling Rajnikanth, ACP Pradyuman, Sir Ravendra Jadeja, and Arnab Goswami.

The sporty babuji that he is, he took both funny and not-so-funny jokes with ease and said:

"When I got to know that I am trending, I was shocked initially and was wondering why am I trending for no reasons as I am not on Twitter or any other social networking sites. Only when my son told me that nothing serious has happened and jokes based on me are trending, I took a sigh of relief. I am happy that people are spending time on creating jokes on me. I am taking the entire thing very positively and in fact enjoying the attention. I have suddenly become very very very important person."
