Rishab Shetty, who according to some people seems to have unfollowed actors and movie industry personalities from the film industry to fans and colleagues on social media is so shocking the actor/director Rishab Shetty has become so far a viral one. As a recent video went viral, the fans are now being quick to speculate in media media and talk about why it happened.
Fans have noticed that from now on Rishab Shetty only follows a handful of accounts mainly wife and his production house page. That rather selective following has aroused one of his fans’ curiosity especially with him belonging to the Kannada movie industry for a long time.
The actor himself unfollowed Hombale Films, which has been used to publish some of his biggest projects. He also unfollowed actors and colleagues Raj B. Shetty and Rukmini Vasanth before unfollowing them too.
In the new piece of news many fans are more surprised that Rakshit Shetty doesn’t belong on his following list anymore. Rishab and Rakshit were so close friends in the past years; the close relationship has been very supportive in terms of both work, the professionals as well as personal proximity.
Social media conversations have been raging ever since and now fans have been trying to figure out the extent to which unfollowers might be a sign that he is out of touch with his colleagues, if not that his career conflicts, personal decisions have been personal; just as often a search for privacy as that he wants to get rid of digitality.
However, there has been no official statement from Rishab Shetty yet on this. Industry pundits are also tight-lipped and we have speculation and there is not that much fact to be proven so I don’t find that interesting.
Some fans defended the actor, and say that social media activity is not always indicative of real-life relations. It’s even possible that it’s a well-constructed exercise or a temporary action.
With the achievement of Kantara, Rishab Shetty has established in India a very personal sphere that has remained relatively private. As a result the actor’s popularity has never wavered from the actor’s big picture.
The actor himself as well as any other celebrity social media behavior, it remains uncertain why or why not? It remains simply another case-study of how celebrity social media media activities can quickly get very much attention in the mainstream.
