I try to form my social media and always spread positivity," Madhavan told IANS. R Madhavan Lauds Police for Detaining the Teen Who Threatened MS Dhoni’s Daughter Ziva on Social Media (Read Tweet)

He understands that the digital space has become dark and toxic. "The world is like that -- even if you put a picture of a small smiling baby, some negative comments will be there. So, if I can spread happiness whichever way I can (I will). I don't put up a picture that makes me feel very entitled, but I like to put things that make people happy and they feel that he too has the same insecurities. I think it is the reciprocation of that positive attitude which makes people give me so much love," he said. Pushpa: R Madhavan To Play Antagonist in Allu Arjun’s Movie? Maddy Answers!
