Ibrahim Ali Khan has been facing trolls for his acting in the recently released film Nadaaniyan.

Vikram Bhatt supports Khushi & Ibrahim amid Nadaaniyan backlash

In a recent conversation with Galatta India, Vikram shared that he is not able to understand the trolling the film is facing. He even liked both lead actors, Khushi Kapoor and Ibrahim Ali Khan, and said, "I liked Ibrahim. It’s a different matter whether the film is good or not. But these days, there is an argument about nepotism, and to win that argument, you have to be superb, but that’s not fair for newcomers. It’s his first film. Who does superb in their first film? He has a presence in front of the camera—you can tell that he knows acting. So, I am sad about this whole thing.”
