Thank you all for responding. I would like to make a few things clear.As stated in my original post and subsequent reply, it was not my intention to "blame" anyone and this post was not just in reference to the pictures that were posted few days ago. It was the trend I was commenting on.
To everyone who has PMed me please note that I was not instructed by Avinash or Rubina to do this. I was merely stating my views based on what I observed over the last few months.
I know the issue of internet privacy is very complicated and arguments can be made to justify all the different points of view. It is not a black and white issue and right and wrong depends on which side of the fence you are on. It is beyond the scope of this forum and my expertise to even begin to discuss that.
My intention was to merely bring attention to the various deceptive ways that fans were using to get to the private information and to discourage the behaviour. The ultimate responsibility of safeguarding their privacy rests on Avina themselves. They have to learn from their mistakes and take necessary steps to avoid them.
I know IF is a very miniscule group compared to the vast sea of fans out there and we cannot control people's behaviour. But if we can make even a little difference it would help our dear Avina as they navigate through life with this new found success and fame.
It was not my intention to offend anyone or to point fingers at fellow forum members. I respect most forum members and know most of them love Avina and would fiercely safeguard their interest and that is why I felt comfortable voicing my opinion on this forum.
If this topic has offended anyone I offer my heartfelt apology.

I don't think you need to apologize AvinaPal, I think most of us understood what you were trying to say and we appreciate it.
I think because internet safety is such a vast topic many of us were reluctant to repsond to your post in the beginning, fearing the discussion would turn into a huge argument. Everyone is going to have their own views on this topic. But as Abali said, we are intelligent folks here and we love and respect Avina very, very much. If we want to see pictures of them offscreen it's only because we love them and want to share in the successful and happy moments of their lives. I agree with my fellow forumers in their request to you to please convey our best wishes and deep love to Avina.

AvinaPal.. I do agree with Sandeepa that you do not need to give an apology...
and we truly appreciate your instinct to protech their privacy...
But be asssure that here at CB forum we all feel like a big family who love Avinash and Rubina very much... and we are as protective of them as mother hen...
We love them on the screen as Dev and Radhika but those off screen pictures makes us realize that they are as much nice people off screen too and our respect and love for them doubles..
And we genuienly can feel for them as actors and also as person and feel like that we do know them personally...
And if I may say so... Actually we all at CB forum feel the same for them... Protective...

Avinapal....u donot need to apolozise for anything....
it was really very sweet of u to post and i loved ur concern for our Avina....

actually i just saw the post....and commenting my opinion...
i agree with fellow members and i too say i would not fault anybody Fans or Our Avina....
they have so many crazy fans and always want to know more about them.......its their love, we cannot stop them....if i get to see some new pics of them it really does bring smiles on my face....beacause its always a pleasure seeing our Avina together......
but when it comes to privacy, personal pics, i think Avina should be little careful.
i hope they didnot get disturbed, and understand it is only our love for them...

A very good discussion and appropriate thoughts by all.Being a public figure and popular Avi and Ruby need to have more and more fans and they cant have only people known to them.Their fans will keep increasing and will consist of all type of people mature reasonable and the other side also.This is a must for them to go on being more successful in future they are just at the starting of their careers and very successful.They will learn what to do and not in future.They may have friends and relatives and for whom they may have posted their pictures.We can all be mature at this forum but what about others.So it would be good that we r able to get this message to Avi and Rubi not to post their personal pictures on internet.Many on the forum also discourage unnecassary speculations on their relationship on forum posts.Avinapal snice u know Avi I suggest u will enlighten them on this.

Interesting discussion.
Unfortunately my dear friends........This is the price of fame....your life becomes an open book. The way I see it, Avina need to be more careful about what they divulge about themselves either via interviews, FB etc. because once its out there it will become public information. Fans will be fans. They will research any and everything they can find about their favourite star. It's not like anyone stole their personal album and displayed their photos for all to see. My 2 cents.
