I am a feminist and I think this article is reductive. The film is much better than this article suggests it is.

I disagree. Entertainment affects people very much sub-consciously. Especially the youngsters. They see the hero doing something like this and think it cool and do it to girls around them trying to emulate those very heroes. Yeah, a lot of it is just entertainment, but stalking and harassing shouldn't be glorified, it should be shown as wrong because it is.

@bold - Such as example pls? any incident?

They might adapt the styles but not the doing of character. It's not like there is no harassment out there. The incident in Bangalore happened way before BKD.

According to me it's all matter of education and our upbringing. If you been given the right values you will never fall in a wrong path.

Since Salman's name is brought up here without any context, let me highlight that it's not Salman alone who has done such roles. SRK in Dil Se, Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa, Chalte Chalte etc have displayed GREAT HEROIC examples of stalking 😛😆. In fact I dont have to go far if I have to bring Amir's filmography as well, he himself admitted he has done roles like that in Satyamev Jayate. 😉

Why are we giving special attention to Salman's movies here ?

Bcs Varun stepping in Salman's shoes. Whatever he does there is a need of bringing in Salman for matter of fact 😆

@ OT - When I absolutely don't support such crap behaviours which 90's and 2000's movies promoted throughout and believe that it leaves a great impact on the youth, I checked with my friend who has watched this movie and she said nothing like this was shown in the movie 🤔.

Can wait till next weekend to watch the show and decide for myself !

Doesnt make sense to me at all 😕😆 The whole filmography of 90's and Y2K's is full of this shit. How is it valid to target only Salman for this ? 😆

This is ridiculous. The film does absolutely nothing of the sort to promote harassment or stalking. Badri has grey shades for sure but his behaviour is not glorified in any sense. The film actually addresses all types of wrong issues and the characters realise it when they're wrong.

If movie shows everything is right, then how will it correct anything. To show what is wrong, it has to start with wrong. If it makes sense. These kind of articles are focusing on narrow part of movies rather than seeing complete picture.
