Like many others, director Vivek Agnihotri found Deeepika Padukone’s saffron bikini in the Pathan song a bit too besharam for consumption.
The trolls, the right wingers who can’t tell right from wrong,pounced on Agnihotri challenging his right to criticize the great Khan dynasty .Deepika’s disciples too thought it was “sexist” to criticize what she was wearing when it was never about what she was wearing or not wearing, but the colour of her costume which was offensive to many.
But the trolls are beyond reason. They pounced on Vivek Agnihotri’s family for vendetta, forgetting that even the mafia has a ground rule of how far to go to seek revenge: never touch the women and children in the family of the man you want to punish.
To expect basic decency from the trolls is like asking Rakhi Sawant to keep quiet for five minutes.
But I think this time the trolls are gone too far. Vivek’s daughter doesn’t qualify for trolling. She is no part of the entertainment industry. Even if she was , she is not wearing the bikini for a film.She is wearing swimming clothes to swim at the beach, and not objectifying herself for a movie camera.
How can a bunch of youngsters on a fun trip be used to serve as fodder for political vendetta?Have some shame, all of you out there who have made a profession out of trolling anyone who doesn’t tow the pseudo-liberal guidelines.
To bring Vivek ‘s daughter into the ring of vendetta is the armpit of social-media heckling.
Those who think it is fine for Deepika Padukone to gallivant in a saffron bikini are as much entitled to their right to thought of freedom as those who think it is wrong for her to disrespect the colour that is synonymous with the Hindu religion. To bring family members into the narrative is just plain and simple bad sportsmanship.
Hitting below the belt to score a liberal brownie point ,is that a good feeling?
