On Monday, Harsh Varrdhan Kapoor took to his Instagram Stories to share his thoughts on the issue, stating, "Don`t know who needs to hear this but please stop wearing fake sneakers... if you have a low/moderate budget, there are plenty of great options out there. Converse, Vans, basic Air Force, etc... if someone gets you a gift and they happen to be inauthentic, you can pass them onto someone else that doesn`t know what they are and would be happy to wear... but if you are buying your own, please do your own diligence... buy from trusted sellers..."
