Tandav is getting polarized views coz a lot of folks getting offended about showing sympathy for Muslims, some events that were highlighted just didn't sit well with them. Also some scene where a Muslim actor, who's playing a hindu character is enacting a hindu god onstage as part of theater. It's causing lots of scandal. As predicted. Show is actually good!
This is oversimplifying and normalising the mocking of Hindu gods.
No one gets offended for Muslim character playing a Hindu God. But It’s the incredulous depiction of Hindu gods that offends people.
Can we for once come out of the eternal Muslim victim mode (actor is not getting love because he is Muslim type statements) and ask why is it okay to mock Hindu gods and not other Gods or messenger?
