"Maybe he cleaning the protein powder that couldn’t digest in 3 years," wrote another fan taking a dig at his other viral video in which he said that it takes three years for a human body to digest protein. He was massively trolled after he made this statement. "Ye protein powder ki baat kar raha hai ? Or Plastic scoop that comes with protein ka dabba," a fan said taking a dig at his statement. "I see Ayushman doing movies supposedly 'progressive', but always speaks random shit in interviews. I mean the guy was on Roadies , that personality of speaking shit with conviction does show," said another one.
