Sahil Khan Slams Trolls Over Viral ‘Arrest’ Video: ‘What Kind of Life Must a Person Have?’

Sahil Khan has hit back at trolls and those circulating what he described as old and fake news after a video claiming that he had been arrested went viral on social media. The actor, who recently attended the Six Sense Energy Drink promotional event, addressed the controversy while interacting with the media and questioned the motives of those who continue to circulate misleading content about him. Despite the viral claims, Sahil was very much present at the event, where he spoke about the incident and the mindset behind such trolling.

Talking about the viral video, Sahil Khan said, “I think you all can answer that yourselves; I am just a small person. If someone posts a video about me or tries to circulate old, fake news... I don't know what their motive is. Because whoever is circulating or posting this—I have absolutely no personal interaction with them. I don't even know who they are. I really don't know what to say.” His response reflected his confusion over why someone with no personal connection to him would go out of their way to circulate content that could potentially mislead viewers.

Sahil did not hold back when speaking about the people behind such posts and questioned what motivates them to spend their time digging up old stories. He added, “In a way—and this might sound rude—I’d ask: what kind of life must a person have? We all wake up and head to work with such enthusiasm, striving for productivity. We all have so much to do in life to grow. But for someone to sit at home, dig up old fake news on their phone or laptop, circulate it, and expect that to put food on their table... it’s very sad.”

The actor went on to deliver his sharpest remark while talking about the circumstances that could drive someone to engage in such trolling. Sahil said, “I can imagine the state of their household right now, that they have to stoop so low.” His comments come at a time when old videos and misleading claims can quickly resurface online and gain traction, often leaving audiences confused about what is genuine and what is being shared simply for attention.

Rather than letting the viral video dominate the conversation, Sahil Khan appeared determined to address the issue directly and move on. His appearance at the Six Sense Energy Drink promotional event also put the reality behind the viral claim in plain sight, as he interacted with the media and spoke about the controversy himself. The event was a star-studded affair, with Sahil joined by Ajaz Khan and Puneet Superstar, as the trio brought plenty of energy and entertainment to the promotional celebration.

For Sahil Khan, the incident once again highlights the darker side of social media, where old material can be repackaged and presented as something new. His message to those responsible was clear: rather than spending time circulating fake or outdated news about someone else, people should focus on their own work and growth. As the actor questioned, “What kind of life must a person have?” — a pointed response to the trolls who helped push the viral arrest claim back into the spotlight.
