I hate the term "feminist card". Feminism is a very broad term, firstly.
Now on to this, you need to understand the industry, here 99% sleep around, have very different definition of marriage. Male-oriented industry, where even your basic rom-com and commercial film will be written from a male perspective. It's an industry where hero decides who gets cast opposite him, hence has a bigger power equation than a woman can ever had. You have cases of casting couch, exploitation either dumped , covered or just ridiculed even though most know all this exists. This is an industry where after a sting-operation the male superstars gave quotes like , " jab ladki aisi karegi toh hum kya karenge".
It's an industry where Ash can give an interview talking about her abuse yet nobody buys it or speaks for her. it's an industry where one Khan went to jail for hitting a journo, another ran a car over victims, 3rd one apparently has a child out of wedlock..yet they are lauded , worshiped ..toh kahe ka feminist card.
Kangy like many starlets was abused by the system and Aditya. I don't support or understand yet considering the nature of this industry i see why she would align with Ajay, Sanjay..she never gave a byte then, it was media briefs and gossip. Perhaps nobody would have bothered around with her then because she was a small actor who could be easily intimidated. But now after some success and an identity she is speaking out against the intimidation of Roshans' in a system where she very well knows big ticket actors might not work with her. She might be ostracised .
Nobody is hailing her choices but everyone is impressed that she is willing to gamble away career options, integrity by dragging this.
Now you have Roshans'. Before there was Kangy, there were murmurs of Mori. Sona Mohapatra recently mentioned how Roshans' made it hell for her because she filed a case and won against them for stealing her work. Roshans' have hired one of the best criminal lawyer , yet they bagged out from their case against imposter or never bothered slamming Kangy with a defamation case. I mean , their lawyer has one of the highest winnable ration, most sought after man..and yet couldn't win this pesky case- that to me is very telling.
Funnily you might be seeing the feminist card thrown around, but sadly there are zillion "invisible" cards stacked against a woman especially in this industry.
