So do we....I can safely bet my life on that none of us would be speaking anything if it was even going to affect us slightly......easy to ask the celebrities to take risks....try putting urself in their shoes....its easy for us to be anonymously sitting behind our computers and passing judgement on everyone and their dog......we will hide if we go wrong...there is no place for these celebrities to hide......that one statement of SRK about intolerance that was twisted and placed out of context by the vulture media..its almost 6 years now and SRK is still paying for it.....ya so easy for us....not easy for them.

You cannot say that 100% of world population cares about themselves. I will make sure to speak up for the truth. Yes I might lose many opportunities and yes I would have suffer but I would sleep with peace at night that I helped a soul. Even if that person is a stranger. And I am not the only person. I am sure people out there who thinks and agree with me. Yes there are selfish ppl out there but there are also gold hearted people out there who makes the community better and safe. Everyone has their turns.

Exactly what is stopping them to ask for a CBI or fair trial.

SSR case is not like any intolerance conversation or religious or political . Someone from your industry has died under mysterious circumstances . A young 34 year old man suddenly left us . The least you can expect is to have some acknowledgement from the Bollywood fraternity for a CBI trial. But all we get is a deaf silence . Everyone was so loud and vocals when they thought it was suicide and now suddenly mute . I will always be disappointed with Bollywood for their silence .

See, this is not appropriate because you're choosing to color the whole industry based on 2 or 3 people taking a stand on American issues. You can call them out as individuals but why the industry? If you're referring to Black Lives Matter, most big stars said nothing. The only ones I recall who did were actresses who need social media points - Priyanka, Kareena, Sara Ali Khan. Sara ended up deleting her post anyway. Is that the industry? Would you be satisfied if they said something about Sushant's case and not ask for more people? I doubt it because the reality is everyone knows which stars the Warriors are after and it's not these starlet types.


Just a statement stating, “hopefully investigation will bring out the truth“ is not a statement against anybody.

Bollywood was vocal about India getting intolerant. (It made an impact too on India’s image). It was such a grey area.

Were they equipped with enough information then, but not now, when it comes to their own industry?

That's not how majority of the world works my dear. You cannot measure everyone with the same standards as yourself. Everyone has different priorities in life and just because you would do something, doesn't mean everyone has to. And they have the right to choose what they prioritize without being called out for it. Especially their families. The amount of bashing and slander these celebs are facing are not just limited to them but their families as well. People are going under the comments of their children and relatives and cussing at them for nothing that they've done. KJo's comments were filled with disgusting threats and comments about his kids and mother. Suhana was getting bashed. Shaheen Bhatt was recieving rape threats. It's easy to say if it only affects you but not people you care for. I'm sure everyone would choose the peace and wellbeing of their own family over anyone else. Everyone has the right to choose their battles.

When it comes to their own industry they know nothing or may be they know a lil too much hence being silent 😆
