I can understand if the stars whose photos are being displayed object to it. Rest is just religious or prudish people getting offended for nothing. That is their favorite pastime anyway.

So sad that you feel that people are offended for nothing👎🏼

I wonder why these companies do so, if this is just for publicity then they need to be held accountable , they can't demean religious sentiments every now n then n get away with it, Set example so they don't repeat it again.

And It would be appreciated if Bollywood Stars come out in Open to Condemn this, this is total Disrespect !👎🏼

Agree

That’s okay, I know why people feel offended at these type of things. I particularly do not see anything degrading in mixing sexual content with anything cultural.

Festivals evolve, and the way of celebration evolves as well. You can be offended for now like every other person and I totally understand that. Some people just see it as a cultural thing while some may have strong beliefs associated with it. Again it is not entirely your festival, it is a free country and even non-religious or non-hindus can observe it as an excuse for celebration because it is very much a part of the culture of India. Same goes with every other festival. The practice of being offended due to certain beliefs has been omnipresent in this world so I am not surprised but I am disappointed that people still do that. It is a practice that belonged to dark ages and still manifests itself when people are bound to dogmatic beliefs related to a certain sort of identity like religious, regional, national etc. My defence of the original post may be outrageous you for now but it is only a matter of time before this line of defence, "in principle", would be a common one. Every one can for sure act like warriors of religious correctness and upholders of moral code of conduct regarding their festivals. But I wouldn't approve of this practice. You really can't stop someone from acting naughty during Navratri as being naughty is perfectly acceptable (as long as it is not eve-teasing) on any day of the calendar, nor can you stop a group of people from asking others to be naughty during Navratri. Like sure you don't want to be like that yourself because of your beliefs but your beliefs are not a code of conduct for other people. Eros is a business so they deleted it because they cannot afford to upset a lot of people and issued an apology to the nation but this practice is abhorrent.

Maybe thousand years ago even naughty Holi would be offensive, now people act like naughty during Holi all the time and songs are made with all sorts of flirting during Holi celebration. That somehow was maybe either allowed in people's so called beliefs or over the course of time they have been made to believe that it is okay. In any case, if a certain group of people feel like they are offended by the flirting in the Holi songs and the sexualization of Holi, are we supposed to ask the makers to issue an apology because we cannot afford to offend their beliefs as they cannot stand anything sexual related to Holi? It is high time people realize their beliefs and festivals are personal. Nobody owes them anything for their beliefs neither do they owe others. Asking people to be naughty is not something outrageous even if your beliefs lead you to be.

Bottomline is that festivals are for celebration and celebratory sex is allowed and okay.

Navratri is not for celebration, the garba and dance part which is associated with it, is.

Any celebration is attached to festivals so that youngsters can participate in the main puja without any drama, be it Diwali, Holi, Navratri. True essence of festivals is to thank God and connect with him/her spiritually.

One can not focus on spirituality if his/her mind is drawn towards sex

Also the tweet is highlighting the hypocrisy that no one preach to go vegan on Eid, or be pollution free on Christmas but will come with something derogatory or insulting or gyan on Hindu festivals.

Also comparison of Holi( dhulandi) with navratri doesn't make sense to me as Holi ( the puja part happens on the previous day and is the major part of festival as per customs not the playing part)

Again these are all my opinions and I have all the right to call upon hypocrisy of a public figure.

WHo cares what other religion people r thinking about us.. its there culture and upbringing thats how they think, behave and talk...its on them actually...dont be emotional form there such behavior ...nothing new .its actually joke on them😆

Navratri is the pooja done for the 9 forms of Goddess Durga and no celebratory sex is allowed and OKAY🤢....take this from a very tolerant Hindu.....and do not preach if you don't know anything about our festivals.....going against religion...be it Hinduism , Islam, Christianity or any other religion for that matter is not cool.....learn to respect the faith and regard of people for their religious beliefs.
