When Shahrukh's next movie is up for release and God forbid he gets into some controvesy, you can't exactly blame people for celebrating or for not caring just like the way you all did.

Disingenuous is the right word. I have a fair idea who posted that comment but by putting that old comment here, this person is trying to make it seem as if I had posted that so left the actual poster's name out 😆

Not surprising coming from this particular one who had helped his/her pal close down our JHMS BO topic before

Interesting, first you claim you guys never supported Karni Sena, but when I posted something contrary, the excuse is 'we are not a monolith'!.. it's not just briahna, there were other fans too deriving comedy from the attacks and other fans showing implicit support with their LOLs and likes..

And hello, how did I close down JHMS BO topic? I made like 3-4 posts, was very polite in that topic and didn't argue or fight with any user, don't put false crap against me.

Yeah, briahna, RE, they dont like SLB so they bashed him, just like your pals bash SRK and his movies

They also have the right to bash any actor/director like everyone else on this forum

If friends like their friends's posts that is their choice, who are you to question that? 😕

Fact is I did not support Karni gundagardi, nor violence of any kind nor cheered on when SLB got slapped or death threats were made

I know exactly what you did on that BO topic so spare me the excuses 🥱

I posted against the Karni people many times and even predicted way back in November that all this nonsense will get Bhansali a much better release date and tons of publicity and the movie will release when people were crying about it as if the world was ending.

There were definitely people who were laughing and enjoying but most of them were from other fan groups who also were reacting to how Deepika/Ranveer fans have acted in the past. It's not like this type of behavior just started with Paddu. This has been going on for a long time.

So Bhansali says...what happened in India doesn't happen anywhere in the world.

Also he says INTOLERANCE is on the rise..

I kind of agree with him on his Intolerance statement...but my question is why was Bhansali spared on his intolerance statement when Shahrukh was beaten black and blue and is still beaten before every movie release of his when his intolerance statement was about it rising in the world not just India..

Similarly Aamir Khan was bashed for days when his wife said she doesn't feel safe in India...Bhansali said something similar in that these things happen only in India and not elsewhere which is false..

So why was Bhansali spared and no brouhaha was there on his statement...it was just given a pass...why and how did this happen?😕

Can someone please post the actual link of the article if they have it...I will update it here. Thanks.

True

The controversy actually helped PV enormously all over the world to grab eyeballs, arouse curiosity, so many people I know went and watched the very 1st week as they were dying to know what was so objectionable abt it,

Some of the ABCD kids here who NEVER watch Hindi movies, have no idea whats going on in BW, even they know the name of Padmaavat because it was on International news here ...it was everywhere...so I can imagine the hype generated in India because of all those protests and violence

So eventually the controversy helped in a BIG way!

By your logic, did all RSDP fans that are here today celebrate the Dilwale violence? You blame them as if they did. Maybe a portion didn't like SRK and did so, but obviously every single person in the whole fandom was not supporting goons. So why treat and bash them as a monolith today!

The point is not about SLB bashing by those groups but laughing and finding reasons to justify Karni Sena's attacks. Either all fangroups are heartless and supported violence to see a movie flop, or the actions of some fans shouldn't be blamed on the whole group.

Excuses? Haha. It's facts, I was polite and stuck to my lane, you and others getting into fights in the BO thread to which I had zero connection is not my problem.

My comments were directed not at every RSDP fans but at those mocking SRK here as a victim, those are the ones who always applauded and cheered on when SRK faced controversy during DW, when ADHM was being targeted...they also attacked RK/SRK fans HORRIBLY during ADHM controversy, mocked when Raees was being targeted by BJP leaders... they scoffed when JHMS was being trolled by RW twitter bots

They know who they are...

as for the BO topic, you questioned my movie analysis by asking why it would appeal to NRIs and basically gave an opening to your pal to make personal attacks on me
