Another Dhruv Rathee supporter commented, ‘Lol I'm a Dhruv Rathee supporter and I have no idea who she is. And y'all claim we'll attack her? Hum kya chaprri elvish aur dalal rajat ke fans hai kya?’ Another comment said, ‘Carolina ji, we are with you, just because some funded people do bad jobs.

Karolina Goswami owns a YouTube channel, India in Details, where she uploaded a series of videos back in May, where she analysed some videos uploaded by Germany-based YouTuber, Dhruv Rathee. Those videos, claimed Karolina, exposed Rathee’s ‘anti-India propaganda’. This sparked a lot of debate among Dhruv Rathee’s fans in India and Germany.
Karolina Goswami also demanded that Dhruv Rathee’s social media accounts be banned due to his fake propaganda. After this, Goswami and her family were allegedly threatened by Dhruv Rathee's followers due to her content. Karolina and her husband also claimed that Rathee’s supporters had previously attacked them once more in Germany in 2023 by breaking into their car and stealing their electronics. The YouTuber allegedly received 220 'death threats'.
Despite these threats, the Goswami family has not backed down. Karolina Goswami had also pleaded that the Government of India provide her with protection in May 2024 due to these threats. Some had even made rape threats to the YouTuber for making those videos, as gathered from some screenshots that she shared on her social media.
The Polish YouTuber, in her now-viral Instagram video, shared that they would continue living in India even if it meant that they had to amp up their security system.
