LOL at misogynist birds claiming someone should not be called sexist and misogynist despite his obvious problematic behaviour just because he is icon.
LOL! Rajesh Khanna was bigger superstar than Amitabh but he was a wife beater and paedo to marry underage Dimple when he was 35. And he will be called so.
Just as Dharmendra is called out for misogyny, philandering, using women and religion at own whims despite his being icon and Sanjay Dutt will always be misogynist, criminal, druggie no matter how iconic he is.
Salman is also iconic but he is bully, woman beater, animal killer, criminal and will be called out no matter how iconic he is.
Being iconic does not mean one cannot be called out. Amitabh is also communal and a genocide inciting maniac who incited mobs against Sikhs in 1984. He is also tainted in Bofors, Panama papers, Paradise leaks, illegal land deals at Barabanki. His affairs are known. Icon my foot!
Laughable to use Kabir's doha to defend tainted scum like Amitabh who would be in jail if not for political links. He is also elitist, promotes superstitions, uses and throws people at whim. Hardly did quality cinema in peak years except Hrishi da films.
His films too promoted misogyny. Do aur do Paanch for eg has him say a dialogue taking digs at menstruation saying tabiyat aurto ki kharab hoti hai har mahine, mard ki nahi.
So much for icon who cannot be called out.
Defenders of such icons love them because they relate to them. This is evident with rants in other threads abusing his wife for looks, defending affairs and abusing feminists, taking digs at both married and unmarried women by same sexist user in habit of using crude language for women.
