trolls! The superstar is gearing up for his next release — the action thriller 'Jawan’. Recently, the ‘Pathaan’ star hosted a Q & A session on Twitter, after sharing a poster of his new film. One ageist troll tried to take a potshot at his age, commenting that at his age (57), he is no longer fit to play the role of a ‘jawan’ (in Hindi, the word ‘jawan’ means youth). “Sir jawan hone ki ek umar hoti hai par aapki umer to bahut jada ho gai hai,” (sir there is an age-limit to be jawan, you are much more older than that), wrote the troll. The ‘Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge’ star was the epitome of composure and biting wit when he gave the troll a taste of his own medicine. “Accha kiya yaad dila diya….ek aur yaad rakhna…bewakoof hone ki koi Umar nahi hoti….ha ha,” (Good that you reminded me, however, remember, there is no age for foolishness!” The acerbic tweet went viral on the microblogging website, gaining 204K views and 6,730 likes. Many Twitter users gushed over his unparalleled wit and presence of mind. “Just him & his unmatched wit & humour,” wrote one fan. Another Twitter user wrote, “How to give back to trollers in his language I loved it!”
