Actress Janhvi Kapoor’s rumoured boyfriend Shikhar Pahariya has often faced social media trolling. He received backlash and was targeted by his online troll who targeted him over his caste. Shikhar took to Instagram and shared his pet dogs and girlfriend Janhvi Kapoor.
Sharing the pictures, he captioned the post as, “Happy Diwali from us to you. May the arrival of Lord Ram bring a year of light and prosperity, may well reign over evil, and may we have the strength and wisdom to always pick the path of righteousness. Blessed are those who have the ability to help, uplift, and protect those who need it. May we recognize this blessing and live with gratitude.”
To which a netizen commented, “Lekin tu toh Dalit hai (But, you’re a Dalit).”
Normally one to ignore negativity, Shikhar didn’t hold back this time and shared that comment on his Instagram story and slammed the user. He wrote, “It’s honestly pathetic that in 2025, there are still people like you with such a small, backward mindset. Diwali is a festival of light, progress, and unity—concepts that are clearly beyond your limited intellect. India’s strength has always been in its diversity and inclusivity, something you clearly fail to grasp. Maybe instead of spreading ignorance, you should focus on educating yourself, because right now, the only thing truly ‘untouchable’ here is your level of thinking.”

About Shikhar Pahariya
Shikhar comes from a prominent political lineage. He is the grandson of former Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde, and his mother, Smruti Shinde, is an actress. His elder brother, Veer Pahariya, recently made his Bollywood debut in Sky Force, co-starring Akshay Kumar, Nimrat Kaur, and Sara Ali Khan. However, unlike his brother, Shikhar has no aspirations to enter acting.
Instead, his name frequently makes headlines due to his rumoured relationship with actress Janhvi Kapoor, daughter of Sridevi and Boney Kapoor.
