Oh please. Like you all won't do the same if you were in her shoes. Imagine you get a job in the best IT company in India. You attend orientation and you are about to join when the day before you get a call from Silicon Valley asking you to join them asap. You are legit telling me that you will reject the latter option because u want to professional and shit? No way, I am sure most of you all (and me) will give two hoots about professionalism and will take up the second offer.
Besides, Priyanka has been working with top shot people. Hell, she is friends with Meghan. She has connections Sallu can only dream of. And you are telling me she is desperate to work with him? Sure she would want to, but she sure as hell doesn't need to.

Sallu's moral hypocrisy is so f**king dumb. He can sabotage other people's work (like removing Arjit Singh's song from his movie because he has personal issues with him) and that is professional, but how dare other people do the same to him?

Sallu is just a big old bully and loser. I don't even like Priyanka that much and I can't take his holier than thou attitude.

Yeh logic accha hai iss forum ka.

Don't blame nepotism. If you were in their shoes, even you would have done the same.

.

Arre bhai, if we were in their shoes, we wouldn't have been sitting here discussing about them anonymously in this forum.

.

Also, the discussion pretty much reaches a moo point when you compare filmmaking with everyday job. Me quitting a job won't have a domino effect on the programming of the company. Priyanka quitting a film will.

.

The point is that we are NOT in their shoes. We are not randomly giving jobs to all our loved ones. We are not being unprofessional and quitting jobs all of a sudden. Speak for yourself. Not everyone is the same.

Ali said everything happened the right way and there was no effect on production. Read this article: https://m.hindustantimes.com/bollywood/katrina-kaif-was-the-best-fit-after-priyanka-chopra-left-bharat-says-ali-abbas-zafar/story-ajVaNf3t7yrUCK3oiLRegI.html

I am sorry but your argument doesn't make sense at all. If you lack the morality you don't find in these celebrities, that means inherently, you are the same person. A killer vs someone who wants to kill but doesn't have the opportunity to, are equally bad.
Therefore, as long as you are willing to admit to yourself that you would have done the same in her shoes, really you don't have the moral superiority over the person.
And if you're really the mahathma who will give up a much better opportunity to be professional, good for you. But I am willing to bet that if you really do get a better opportunity, all these values and ethics will fly out of your head and you'll take the opportunity. It is very easy to talk on a forum about how mahaan you are but let's get real here.

But how? I really want to know the reasoning behind this phrase 'If you were in their shoes, you'd done the same.' If tomorrow, I'm in the shoes of a witness of a high end murder case who is blackmailed into turning hostile at the court, what's the assurance that I'll do the same? I might still stay strong and have the strength to fight for the case instead of turning hostile. It differes from person to person. Some might get scared while some might have thr strength to not be afraid and keep fighting. And this isn't fiction. We have seen such things happening in real life.
.

That's pretty much my problem with such a flawed phrase. No one knows what will one do if he/she is in someone else's shoe except for that person. There can't be a blanket generalization of sorts like you're doing. If there's a Priyanka who gave up Bharat for a larger project, there's also someone like probably a Sridevi who despite being at her prime in the Hindi film industry, acted in a way less lucrative Mallayalam film Devaraagam only because her mother had promised the director that Sridevi would act in the film which was crucial for the director.
So there are people in different ends of the spectrum. There are people who still value professionalism and commitment over opportunities.
.

Even today when you go for job interviews, people who have stuck to a particular organization for long are given more preference over those who keep jumping jobs every two months due to better opportunities. Because that shows their professionalism and loyalty over their previous organization.
.

And if you think I'm going to get anything from acting all mahaan and mahatma in an anonymous online forum, I'm pretty sure it's someone else who needs a reality check. 😆Being professional and having work ethics does not make one mahaan. It is something that is expected from a professional working in an organization. It is what employees should normally have. Professionalism is the key of a proper working environment in the long run.

i don't get it, why are women actors expected to be thorough professionals?

where as male actors and their over inflated egos are allowed to dictate the female actors/have other casts' roles cut, actors replaced because of personal equations etc etc

its not like Bollywood as an industry practices exemplary professional practice standards...

also if Priyanka had already signed a legal contract then she can't get out of it, it appears like she verbally agreed then changed her mind... so what's the big deal? why all the selective outrage?

Well, let's also put ourselves in the shoes of smugglers, murderers, rapists and terrorists.

So what he killed someone for some money.
We would've also done the same if given a good offer.

So what if he raped a girl, man..try to understand. The guy was sexually frustrated and couldn't get a girl.

So what if terrorists are killing people in the name of religion, they are all brainwashed.

In most jobs, once you sign the job contract, you can't just break it without facing dire consequences. Even Silicon Valley wouldn't like to employ an employee who is unprofessional and breaks contracts. Sure, no one is saying Priyanka does not have connections but her connections with Meghan or Ralph Lauren or whoever isn't going to help her with bollywood. Also, no one is saying Salman is professional in his treatment of Arjit, etc, but Priyanka wasn't exactly embodying professionalism when she left the movie after agreeing to do it.

^ Also, adding on to the post above, no one is saying Salman is the prime example of professionalism in Bollywood and what these male actors do wrt actresses roles and stuff is good. The forum has time and again criticized the men for their egos and lack of professionalism. People are now doing the same for Priyanka.
