I wanna discuss if you will ever be able to watch a film with or hear a song of the people who have been accused an just enjoy them without any side eyeing ???

How will you feel watching those movies ???

I won't ever pay any money for the art of the accused ones if proven guilty but for some even the accusation might be enough.
It's easier to avoid movies than music.

I have this same doubt in my mind.

Just now I was going through some memes in Insta where I saw 3idiots scene . I couldn't complete the clip as Hirani topic is fresh in my mind. I just scrolled it. Not sure if I can watch his movies in near future.

Let's see

No. I can't. My guilty pleasure movies were HAHK, HSSH, and Yaadein. I haven't even touched those movies since the MeToo movement in Bollywood.

My entertainment is not great than my disgust for these men.

I would be able to enjoy the persons work that has ALREADY been put out there and watched because I feel like thats not something that can be changed.

However, going forward I would not want to person to create content or be recognized.

A movie is a team work. I generally would not like to watch but for others I will if the product is good. No need to punish the director for the actor and so on. I will simply not talk about the accused person's work. This is for past work. I hope they won't be in any future movie.

Same. I won't reduce it as that one person's work as it Never was. Watch it fort the hardwork of others.

I don't know if I can do it or not for the work he has already done before accusations. Because separating art from a person is very tricky, especially if you have a personal connection with one of their work. Some things are nostalgic.

But, supporting that person after you know about stuff is total bullshit, he will earn from his work, make money, will be successful, and use that money and power to cover up his crimes.

That's a complete No-No for me.

till now didn't have to...dont know about future..as it is I cant watch Sajid Khan's movies and never liked RKH's movies, even before the accusations...Didnt watch Sanju at all...not even for free on netflix / amazon (dont remember where its streaming)

i did like Queen, but was a one time watch...so as it is, wont watch it again...

But I agree with some comments here, the movies already made is the hard work of a whole team, almost all of them are innocent, so why punish them for one accused...

If accusation has solid backed-up history and if I feel the person is fosho "guilty", I WON'T watch their future endeavors!

But if you ask me about "general audience" ... just look at Salman Khan .. he's got a huge fanbase who constantly defend him .. public has short memory and very lenient when it comes to serial offenders and abusers!

Sanjay Dutt, Salman Khan, Alok Nath, Sajid, Subhash Ghai ((counting criminals and sexual offenders) and there must be many others in the industry ... Frankly speaking it's hard to keep count!
