New Delhi: Actress Priya Prakash Varrier became an overnight sensation in 2017 - all thanks to her wink which made her a national crush. Priya or 'wink girl', as she is famously called recently featured in Telugu romantic thriller titled Ishq: Not a Love Story with Sajja Teja. 

In an interview with Pinkvilla.com, Priya Prakash Varrier opened up on facing online trolling. She said, "These people tend to forget that even though you are a public figure, we all have a personal life. We all are simple human beings at the end of the day and you live a normal life like any other and that's the thing they tend to forget. I don't think so you can always be responsible for posting some stuff on Instagram and I am a person who keeps herself with no filters on Instagram. I show my vulnerable, happy self so I think, people should start normalizing all these. You can't always be well-guarded and be how others want you to be. Talking about trolls, I have faced a lot in 3 years and I have become numb to it. I just take positives and ignore others."

At least they are spending some time, they know who I am and that is my priority. My outlook will be like at least I'm reaching to a lot of people...they known me at least as an actor, as a budding actor this is my priority of being noticed by more number of people."
