My Bollywood piece busted by a Telegraph troll

Trolls are nasty creatures who bottom-feed on blogs and websites, but this particular troll nailed me when commenting on my latest piece for The Telegraph

=====================

“With any luck, they’ll consequently ask me back to do a third movie and I can owe it all to wonderful social networks.”

“This alternative career came about through my good friend and old Harrovian James Foster who runs a chi-chi hotel in Goa called Casa Covale. When he called me up asking me if I wanted to be in a Bollywood movie, the answer was immediately positive.”

So an old school friend called you by phone? How very old-fashioned. Why do you owe it all to social networks? Because the film has a Facebook page? Every film has a Facebook page – the one for Dum Maaro Dum just has a poster of the film on it – not exactly cutting-edge.

“… And I have bored everybody rigid about my experiences since I returned home last year.”

Yes.
