All parties have habit of using filmmakers, stars, singers for promoting own govt, ideology.

Please tell honestly, did a star or celeb ever influence your social, cultural or political views?

Did any film, social media content, campaign or ad or affiliations, blogs, or leanings of a star influence your views, ideology or voting or buying behaviour or choices and decisions in any aspect in real life? At any point of time, even as an 18 YO?

Not sure celebs ever had that power on me. Like teen me loved them, didn’t worship them. Neither the clothes they wore, nor the brands they advertised. Anyone getting their political leanings from the likes of a Sonam or Kareena frankly shouldn’t be allowed to vote.😆They have the power to influence but which actor/actress has actually tried to use that to their benefit? The only person that instantly comes to mind is Aamir Khan in Satyamev Jayate. And kudos to him for that!

Do you think celebs are worth the investment political parties and some NGOs put in them to promote certain ideologies, views, ideas, causes?

Or is it overestimated and overrated?

Did you ever notice an idea more because a celeb talked about it or did a film, show or ad about it?

I agree it would be silly to form an idea based on what say, Sonam or Bebo spoke or tweeted. But you never know if a teen formed an idea or voting preference based on what their fav star said.

I thought the American elections proved that’s all BS? I was lol’ing when they had Katy Perry and Queen B singing..to get people to vote for Hilary instead of Trump?😆I mean, how do people think politics works? SMH but people love to talk about the significant impact a selfie of Akshay has with the Prime Minister. Itna hi influence hai toh why can’t he make them watch his movies?😆

The chances of that happening is slim and none. And slim left town the day I was born. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.
