In her video, Karolina expressed her determination to stay in India despite the challenges. She boldly stated, “We fear nothing. We will continue living in India.” This strong message has resonated with her followers and others who have viewed the video, showing her courage in the face of fear.
The threats against Karolina began earlier this year, in May, when she analyzed and criticized Dhruv Rathee’s YouTube content. According to Karolina, her analysis exposed what she described as “anti-India propaganda” in Rathee’s videos. As a result, she reportedly received over 220 threats from Rathee’s fans, which led her to take extra precautions for her safety, including hiring security guards.
