don't think I said that anywhere. Producers need to consider audience opinions too, even if they are the ones with money is the gist of what I said. I personally doubt that Shraddha saw it as anything objectionable during the making of movie, in fact she probably took it as a compliment. Unfortunately, she's more of an airhead in this regard. Unlike someone like say Anushka who would have taken a stand.
That's a regular thing we say to people we know, don't we? If you are pretty, you should be a heroine. It's taken as a compliment. But if you say that to a beautiful and talented woman at the workplace, it is almost like you are undermining her work performance and in essence making a pass at her, which constitutes as workplace harassment. Inappropriate touches, as depicted in movie and being accepted by other male colleagues is the bigger part of the problem.
This article comment is most likely made in context of rising crimes against indian women as well as inappropriate harassment at workplaces. More of, how these things fly under the radar in real life and not noticed until things become really bad and blown out of proportion. That's the way I read it, of how we don't notice issues when they are smaller to start off with (and easily addressed).
Of course, bollywood is the last place one can expect gender fairness or where women are treated with utmost respect or professionalism.
