So the recent Bollywood arrest got everyone talking. What are they talking about....drugs and its harmful effects? NO ...mental health (repeat after me doesn't count)? MAYBE... supporting drug dealer, procurer, seller, abuser? YES

The concept of Feminism that I understand is the same amount of opportunities that you'd give my male counterparts is what I deserve, same treatment. I can't be a hypocrite in saying that I'll accept the applause equal to my male colleague, the paycheques equal but not similar law when I'm the criminal? HYPOCRISY.

From yesterday I'm seeing different versions of feminisms that very tactfully says, I'm a feminist as long as I'm the beneficiary.

For example: If I'm standing in line along with males for an interview I not getting an early entry isn't patriarchy. Its patriarchy when the man standing behind me gets to enter earlier just because he's a male (ITS JUST AN EXAMPLE)

Crime is wrong, criminals should be punished according to the IPC it doesn't matter if the criminal is a male or a female. When you point finger at a dead male to cover up for a criminal female its PSEUDO FEMINISM.

The concept of Feminism is so messed up with my generation that they think if they aren't treated better than males it's patriarchy.

FEMINISM IS HUMANS BEING TREATED EQUALLY AND GIVEN EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES IRRESPECTIVE OF THEIR GENDER.

Treating criminals equally isn't patriarchy.

P.S. I've never before spoken my entire mind in this forum, but I had to today. Hope to not have hurt anyone's sentiments. I'm ready for all the negativities coming my way 💜

God Bless All

It's because Sooraj Pancholi is a nepo kid. If it were Sara in place of Rhea, no arrests would have been made. It's not patriarchy, it's nepotism.

But people here said Rhea is being backed by Bollywood mafia just like Sooraj Pancholi was so how come she was arrested? By that logic she would've scot free just like Sooraj right?

I haven't taken up on the case of SSR its about the little Roses Violets and Patriarchy.

Sooraj Punch-oli moving around free is one of the worst example of abusing of power. Its wrong on every level.

Protest against a drug procuring criminal's arrest just cuz its a female is Pseudo Feminism

It's still not proven that she is a part of any drug cartel, she has been arrested for further custodial interrogation. And that's what the protest is about. If Rhea is arrested for consuming drugs, so will many other people who do the same everywhere. Is NCB arresting other people around?

Rhea has been on her own fighting all these allegations. No friend or family member has been by her side with the exception of her brother and father.

Seeing her yesterday climbing into that van was sad and scary that she is going through all this because of a relationship where the other side is not here anymore to defend her or himself.

Now only Bollywood is speaking up but its too late for that. The damage has been done!

Vidya and a few other actresses spoke up after Rhea's first TV interview, the others are only coming out now.

But notice the number of male actors supporting Rhea, there's not that many. At least, none of the big stars are supporting her.

This girl is fighting this alone. The media so wants to get a shot of her breaking down and being hysterical but she has kept it all together till now.

More power to her! May justice be served!

P.S. I think Bollywood people are not saying this is happening to her because she is a woman but more so because of politics. They can't outright say Politics since its the same party they have supported all these years so they are using the 'targeting her because she's a woman angle'.

I am against Sooraj because he was responsible for someone's death, I am against Rhea because I believe she is responsible for someone's death. I am against Salman because he was responsible for others death. I guess, TM is pointing towards Bollywood's hypocrisy for using Feminism here when the same Bollywood didn't occur a word against two men 'Salman' and 'Sooraj' who also were responsible for someone's deaths.


Rest, I do believe, this case has nothing to do with feminism, not at all. When people use gender card in the cases where it's not needed , it's like misusing such concepts to a level that people start disregarding even the real issues where women actually face problems because of gender.

Sooraj Punch-oli moving freely is abuse of power too. They were able to brush it under the carpet cuz Jiah's case wasn't protested by this no. of people or it hasn't rattled the system to such an extent. This time its public who's taking the stand to have a closure.
