Abhiraj's views -

Once I release the video, I don't seek out the reactions. Once the video is done and it is out there, I don't own the video anymore, it becomes people's video. People decide whether the video is a bad one or a good one. Yes, i am very emotional regarding whatever we put out on our platforms. Comments on a video are important, once my emotional connection with the video is over, I go and check what people are saying about it. Constructive criticism is always welcomed. I believe unless there are any negative comments under a video, that video has not done well. Only recent followers put negative comments. Getting 1% of negative comments is fine for me.

Niyati's views -

For me, I am a very emotional person by nature, so negative comments do affect me a bit. But, overtime i have grown a thicker skin around this matter. Earlier, I would reply to Facebook comments and people on that portal do get nasty at times. Now, I ignore the comments altogether. Only a few things do get to me, but when they do, it does hurt.
