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'.

Bollywood is simply being hypocrite to be blunt. Lets take Vidya Balan wasn't she the one who said LET LAW TAKE ITS COURSE? Then why bash the same law when its arrested someone for 'further interrogations' ? Just because it didn't go how she wanted?

There is nothing patriarchal in the arrest cuz other accused/suspects who happens to be male were arrested before her.

It is patriarchy if you see the way the media has covered it. Go read the public sentiment on twitter. Its vile. Kala jaadu karti thi, uske aane ke baad ssr bimaar hua, uska istemaal kiya, usse zeher diya etc etc


Are the agencies wrong in doing their job. No. But look at the narrative and the reactions of the public. There is so much hidden misogyny that is now on display.


When you pin the blame of a suicide on the girlfriend or wife rather than accept that the man was mentally ill then that is problematic.


It is not a suicide you say. Great. Let the agency submit their report.


How come we have a problem if a handful of people are supporting a fair investigation (not necessarily her) but have no problem that 90% of the public has been baying for her blood for the past 2 months!!!

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

Pudiyawood humesha pudiya ke nashe main rehta hai unko violet blue nazar aata hai.


Ab kangana ke sath rhea ne bhi confirm kar diya .

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.

Exactly, asking for law to take its course and then bashing the same law when it does take its course is what I am talking about

If the situations were reversed do you have any idea what they have would have done with Sushant who apparently had no godfathers here and was not a nepo kid!! Then what would that be??

Consuming, procuring or selling of drugs is WRONG. Phir toh ab aap bolo Sita maiyya ne agni pe chali thi toh ab everyone going through a similar situation would also have to do the same.

Aaj ki taarikh pe ye wrong hai. Hum toh sabko badnaam karne mein raazi hai

If people think she is not directly involved in ssr's death then why is she being treated like one by the agencies?

Agencies and people are two completely different entities. She's being questioned cuz she's a suspect.

Not here to defend whatever twitter trend some Bollywood stars/technicians are running. I don't think the media trial and the investigation centred on Rhea have much to do with patriarchy. But, I can see patriarchal mindset among the people who lapped up the narrative of the gold-digger girlfriend, who manipulated an innocent man, took control over his finances and household, distanced him from his family, drugged him without his knowledge etc etc, all with her beauty, sex appeal and some black magic! The fact that this theory has found so much resonance despite there being no proof at all (so far), is indicative of society's deep-rooted prejudice against independent women.

Just like kaala jadu karti hai is wrong, similarly smashing patriarchy because the arrested one is a female is equally wrong.

I don't have a problem if one or many people support a fair investigation but I definitely do have a problem if the same people would be hypocrites to ask for law and bash the same when its not per their convenience.
