He's got truck load of female fans from his Balika Vadhu show days.They are supporting him and many of his female fans expressed lot of reservations about his entry into Bigg Boss.

I think most of those fans vote blindly without even watching the show.

There are enough people prefering Shukla & Kabir Singh is a big hit!

Indian men intrinsically is violent & likes to put a women down. Shukla is making them do things aphoristically which they cannot do themselves.

Wth! What sort of blanket statements are these that get passed around like highly informed intelligence here? Indian men are intrinsically violent? Any stats to prove that or playing at dramatic ‘phenking’ ?

A good percentage of the people voting for Shukla are Hindi GEC viewers who have had a history of following his body of work over the years which cannot be taken away from him and trust the power of the positive image he’s instilled in their collective consciousness. To many, the version of him they are seeing on BB is just another onscreen version. Why do you think many people here still imagine Sid and Rashmi are in love? 😆

Why was Kabir Singh a hit? Why was “Deewana” a hit and catapulted SRK and why was the scene of Shah Rukh smearing colours ruggedly on a Divya Bharati watched with palpitating gasps? Why was Darr a hit? Google “Anti-hero” if you don’t know about it already. Characters who break the ethical mould have been seen as aspirational since Classical Greek times. Nothing to do particularly with India.

I for one, am not a Hindi GEC person and will still vote for Shukla coz I like him for his thought process minus his aggression which I absolutely won’t approve of, but that I believe can be worked around with therapy. But the way he assumed the role of de facto leader from Day 1 has captured my imagination. And there is frankly no other aspirational guy in there who can measure up to him 🤷‍♀️ Plus I absolutely adore Sidnaaz.

As for Kabir Singh, as I mentioned about Darr and Deewana earlier, it’s also the wildness of the romance that has caught people’s imagination. It’s a time when relationships are seeing breakdowns and loyalty is rare. In the middle of that here’s a girl and guy sticking with one another despite all odds. They broke all of societal expectations and the movie literally fed the appetite of an adolescent and post adolescent audience. The rebel is always a hero in society. Plus hey, full credit to Shahid Kapoor and how he articulated the character. Plus the songs- a lot goes into making a movie a hit. Let’s not undermine the work of any department of the movie. Personally, many scenes were cringe for me, but I can see what would have appealed.

I am almost sure my long post wouldn’t make a difference to your opinion, but hey, I tried. And no, Indian men are NOT intrinsically violent, there are absolutely stats to support a statement like that, even relatively speaking with other countries and kindly don’t chastise our men based on one guy on Bigg Boss who has issues with anger management and the success of Kabir Singh- these are not parameters to judge an entire community. So, kindly refrain from random maligning.
