Bollywood: the rot within, and the glitz outside - By Shobhaa De - Page 4

Lol.. sorry I can’t take Shobha De seriously. Sau chuhe khaa ke billi hajj ko chali is totally apt here. Shobha’s whole image is/has been the typical Page 3 bitchy Bombay socialite who is very much part of this ‘toxic’ culture that she herself is calling out in this piece. I’m sure KJo knows that people don’t ‘actually’ like him - it’s really not eye-opening. The rest, sure, we all knew existed, doesn’t make it right but then you should have called it out when you were in the position to do so na? Not saying people can’t change but Shobha is just being her usual bitchy self here.

Most of the Page 3 people are extremely bitchy..

Wow. 😆 WOW.

This has to be the mother of ironies! Shobha De, SHOBHA DE of all people calling out Bollywood ? The same person who has profited off its culture of dirty laundry in public and throwing the nastiest blinds out there. The one who has been bootlicking more stars than you can count, whose entire career is an extension of making money off whatever she's trying to go against here 😆

What Rajeev Masand is today is what Shobha Dee has been for decades and she's suddenly found the conscience to be sati savitri devi supporting ganga se bhi pavitra Kangana? A whole joke 😆

This entire Kangana thing and now Shobha De's support of her is a classic case of major FOMO 'noone invites me to the party anymore so I'll just protest at the door against its happening' like how dare they enjoy without me 😿

I keep saying this and I will continue doing so. Bollywood is indeed a nastyass place. The power balance is so off that it's scary. Its so easy to take advantage of an outsider. BUT you can't champion to change the system if you have played the same dirty games,profited off the same things as everyone you are accusing everyone else of and if you're an equally vile human being. Whether it's dirty blinds,so called drug culture, sexual harassment, extra marital affairs, threatening people- Kangana has done it all. Shobhaa De as profited off it. So if Bollywood is a rot, Kangana and Shobhaa are right there being part of it all. This pot calling the kettle black is hilarious on another level LOL.

Watch Shobha De write about how amazing Bollywood is when the tide changes. 😆

You only find bollywood filthy. The nexus between the super rich and politicians is much worse in this country. 🤬

This nexus decides the fate of the country and so much corruption happens here. If this nexus supports you, nothing can harm you. Your worst enemies and competitors would be finished. Everybody tries to enter this closed group.

Ek dum mast bola!

A blogger for almost two decades who spent her life bootlicking stars, hosting parties for them and bitching about people left, right and centre much before all these Masand types came into picture is now talking about the 'rot' within the industry that she didn't care about exposing back then because she was chummy with the same stars and is now behti ganga mein haath dhoing cuz celebs don't give her attention anymore. 😭

People like Shekhar Gupta and Shobhaa De are those opportunists who during their tenure when they were in the position of power did absolutely nothing to highlight the power game in the industry but now is all ohhh dirty bollywood because they don't get any attention from the same celebs they used to bootlick earlier.

Exactly my thoughts. Isn’t she the one who started the gossiping nonsense in the industry?

Kangana is not a crusader for justice. She is an unhinged, toxic woman who is using someone's death to further her own agenda. Anyone who cannot see that she is not the voice of reason or sanity needs to take a step back and consider the bigger picture.

No surprises there. Even if the biggest and brightest of the lot is supposed to be in deep shock at the dramatic turn of events. His friends are said to be worried about his fragile state of mind and insist his low mood has much more to do with a sudden realisation that he has emerged as the most disliked person in Bollywood. Of all people, he was the one celeb who banked on his immense popularity within and outside the film industry. Overnight, he has been declared persona non grata. And woken up to the sad, well-concealed truth that far from being liked and adored, he is actively detested. That too by the very people who cultivated him over the years and wanted to be a part of his coterie.

Today, the image game has gone for a toss — just like that. Carefully constructed narratives around several big names have been deconstructed, dissected and dumped, with all the revelations emerging in dramatic bursts from an outspoken lady sitting inside her chalet in Himachal, and issuing daily challenges to her colleagues.
