Right. When you say Vanga has the right to make utterly hateful crap against one sex and we must not curtail art like you did in your post, where does that leave us? Because we do not exist in a vaccum.
My point is, how can we say stop celebrating when the movie is literally asking you to celebrate every deed that the male lead carries out with celebratory BGM and pats on the back for every man he kills? But then we also turn around and say collections are to be celebrated, but not the content. But they both are interlinked? It's unrealistic and expecting too much from an average audience.
I'm not ragging you but thinking aloud and pointing that we put all these conditions on viewers (what to enjoy, what not to enjoy, what to watch, what to skip) but give creative license to filmmakers especially men like Venga because it's art. So whats the solution here?
Because it is his constitutional right to make a movie he wants to make, I don't support boycott or ban of any art form also I didn't say what people should watch or enjoy, their life their choice.
My post was against the narrative which was defending Vanga and the movie by saying that movie doesn't celebrate Vijay and Abrar. Vanga is plain woman hater, he is not some brilliant filmmaker who is not asking you to celebrate the character, who is trying to show you how obsession is wrong. The narrative was wrong so I was correcting it
Why don't you ask them why are they defending him instead of coming after me?
Collection and movie are different things. People celebrating collections aren't sexist or misogynistic, people celebrating those scenes are, I am not gonna put both in the same bracket.
