    The "102 Not Out" star says he is aware about it, but chooses to avoid it. 
     
     
    "Yes, I care. Yes, I know of the abuse and yes, I wish they be of greater intensity towards me for then it forms an unattainable mindset for even greater achieving attention given to such translates into what the troller actually wanted - notice," he added. 
     
     
    The thespian says trolls provoke him to do better.
     
     
    "I have no time for abuse... I have time for my work, for my Ef and this Blog... I do not have time to attend to abuse. I love it actually, for it provokes me to betterment. (It) provokes me to get bigger and vastly improve my self, my demeanour, my standing and my dignity," he added. 
     
     
    Big B says he is "grateful to them" for it "drives me better and longer with better enlightened mind"
