Movies affect real life people and their thought processes, in this case, the youth are clearly the intended audience and thus will get affected. And who says, everybody was fine with white washing of sanjay dutt? Just because hypocrisy runs rampant in journalism doesn't mean the rest of us are the same. Also ignoring one wrong because there are sea of wrongs is not the way to go. Two wrongs clearly do not make anything okay or right. 🤔

That doesn’t mean that these things can’t be shown in movies. We’re not living in a fantasy world here

it can be shown,not romanticized. Noone complains about crime petrol or anjaam cz the characters face consequences n r not treated as sympathetic figures by director

You take agency away from the victim when you normalize/glorify undesirable behaviour.

So what if he abused her- He deserved the happy ending- did you not see how much he loved her?

Should the end justify the means in all cases? He could abuse her, control her, take away her self respect, ability to think and act for herself- just because he loves her. It has a debilitating effect on his life- is that really repentance? Its a choice he made of his own volition. Did Preethi ask him to throw away his life? No. However, his choices had disasterous effects and probably left deep trauma scars on her. Ask any of your female friends who have ever acquired an over-enthusiastic admirer. The one who follows you home, never lets you out of their sight. Its horrible. The minute you romanticize this behaviour in your "anti-hero" hero and project it as desirable and it all working out in the end. How many people will now go all out in harassing the object of their affection- because if it worked out for Kabir Singh..it will work out for me too eventually? Dont tell me its just a movie. All the women of this forum must have been catcalled, harassed with BW songs and catch phrases- life does imitate art in the sub-continent.

These are some of the issues that a lot of woke people have with the movie.

when such behavior is normalized, people tend to question it less. If media starts Calling it out n shows it as just how it is,creepy n abusive, people will question it more. People get affected by Media whether we like it or not. That's why biased news channels r a concern, films glorifying such behavior r a concern. There's been cases where people have joined army seeing lakshya, read about the Slenderman stabbing case. We can't say oh people need to have brain n keep glorifying the behavior in films, it's irresponsible given India is a country where films r imitated. How many girls have been eveteased by a cheap line of some Bollywood romantic film. Also, this type of heroes r shown all the time in bw, there's no scarcity of douchebag heroes in bw, so not like this story hasn't been told n need to be told again n again.
