Why is Cheating Being Justified ?

This year alone I have seen two movies that have justified “cheating” on your partner

One is Gully Boy and the other De De Pyaar De. Audiences made excuses for both characters

In my opinion - this is unacceptable and needs to stop. Why hasn’t any issues been made out of this? People get cheated on and are supposed to be okay with it ?

For most people - cheating is wrong and unforgivable and it’s high time movies start showing that consistently. This is not something that will have good repercussions!

He says sorry and that’s supposed to make everything ok? It’s still wrong. Why does the girl always take the guy back ? It’s so regressive and deadly to show such a thing

Safeena was lady Kabir Singh, so she was just happy to have Murad back, just like Kabir Singh was happy to get back Preeti even accepting her kid(which he thought was her husband's, as he didn't knew it was his).

So these are common traits in these type of toxic masculinity characters, they don't care about world, if they want something, they want them regardless of anything.


See justification, depends on how you view it. Safeena was a person who just wanted Murad, and didn't saw or didn't want to see any fault in him, that is why she always looked to blame others for his mistakes. So when you know that character is like that, you don't see that situation justifying cheating, it just shows that the person is a mad one, who doesn't care about anything if it means they get what they want. And it wasn't like Safeena was a submissive doormat, as in their relationship she was the one who wore pants. So you cannot say the she did it because of society pressure. So when a confident person takes his/her decision, it isn't justifying. Justifying is when movie shows how a woman shouldn't leave her husband, no matter what, thus she attempts to get him back, ala Biwi Number One.

But here it was completely different.

The cheating in Gully Boy became moot once Safeena started assaulting people.

Two wrongs don’t make a right, she was affected by the trauma of his actions and that’s why she did what she did

There’s a difference between doing something wrong and doing something criminal. 🥱

Its more wrong, when you are trying to defend something which is truly indefensible.
