Why such hatred for Hemant and Monali?

I have been a silent reader of this forum, and I have noticed most of the people here don't leave a chance of dissing these two, if their singing talent isn't enough, they bring out their personal lives, comments made by them to hate them..
First Monali - She is a national award winning singer, how can people even think that she's not a good singer? I can understand you don't like her voice fine, but people made a thread about Chetan saying "Wow", just to belittle her, So she made an insensitive remarks against Rainit, which was wrong of course, but I can understand that she must have felt that Rainit was faking it, it's not uncommon, it shouldn't have been done, she shouldn't have said it on live stage, but hello, we can't hang her because you hate her, now can we?


Hemant - He is such an amazing singer, I have seen him experimenting with different songs every week, in first few weeks, I never thought he could ace something like "Satrangi Re", but I have noticed people love to hate him, Monali asking Rainit about his disability is insensitivity, and people here digging for Hemant's family, posting his videos, which have nothing to do with his music, is not? Or even speculating that he lied about his age? But these people love Rohan Preet, who is getting votes for his face and apparently his province, he is average singer at best, I have never enjoyed his performance, I don't connect with him and I don't really see how women liking him is relevant to his singing? Anyway, what's wrong with Hemant saying whoever he is, is because of his father? How is this patriarchal? If you can't find something to hate him, fish out a non issue and jump guns?
In Dangal movie, when Geeta says whoever she is, is because of her father, was that patriarchal? No, we saw it was her father, who worked day and night for her, Same goes for Hemant, it is his father's dream, he loves his father, doesn't mean he doesn't love his mother, and honestly, how is his personal life even a matter?

This post is about how I feel about your question so I can't speak for everybody. I would request the other active users to also reply to this as I don't want this forum to be known for "hate".

First of all to Monali. I don't think anybody hates Monali here. I certainly don't. I really like her voice to be honest. Two of my most favorite songs of Bollywood are hers- Sawar Loon and Moh Moh Ke Dhaage. And I feel she sang them beautifully. But if someone feels that she is not a strong singer, then that is their opinion and they have every right to it. We are not obliged to like every singer even if they have won a National award.

Like many, I also felt that the Raenit comment was insensitive and I feel it's a good thng we discussed it. Because this is what the forum is all about after all. To dicuss about our view points and opinions. If you don't think it was insensitive then I totally respect that but you also have to respect our opinion.

Also please don't confuse criticism with hatred, that happens too often. If you have noticed, we have not only critized Monali, but also Diljit and Shankar for various reasons. Criticism is important for progress!!

The Monali-Chetan thread was just all fun. At least for me it was. I didn't take it very seriously and I don't think any of us do.

So please don't take everything we write here too seriosly, most of the times we just joke around and try to make other people laugh. 😆

Coming to Hemant. Again we are not hating on Hemant and there is really no agenda or anything 😆 If you read our Performance Threads again Hemant has always been in our top most of the time. And most of us feel that he is an incredible incredible singer and at least deserves to be in Top 2. And solely talent wise I feel either he or Vishnumaya should be the winners.
But again, you cannot say people who think otherwise are wrong, it is just their opinion and we have to respect them, even if you or I disagree.

You know I said criticism is the first step to progress. Same applies here. If we feel someone is misogynistic or has some problematic views, we should discuss that. We cannot take problems like these lightly anymore. And I amhappy I am not the only one who feels that way.

Also if you read the Thread again, we are coming of a place of dissapointment and not hatred as most of us actually liked Hemant. And I personally still hope that I am wrong about him and he is not like that at all.

All in all I would request you to not confuse "criticism" with "hatred" and also not to take this forum too seriously. The forum is about exchanging our opinions and feelings about this show and that is all we do.

Thanks for reading and understanding. 😊

Regarding Monali, national award or no national award...she's been engaging in some national level shenanigans and so no regrets for calling her out! 😛

Colors is promoting this entire show on personal stories🤔 ,asking audience to vote not just on singing but on personal stories as well...

So why shouldn't the audience bring up these issues😕 ..

See they themselves want us discussing patriarchy 😛

Show's tagline was soch ki deewar so we were just discussing hypocracy of makers, on one hand we are shown mamta as raising equality wall for females, others side we are seeing hemant saying ek aurat ka nhi aadmi ka hath.. itne contradictions??

and did monali receive national award I doubt? it can be mention but full fledged national award and even if she won she is mediocre singer for me and does not deserve to judge the show.. we are not being rude to her its just difference of opinion b/w u and us 😊

I respect everyone's opinion, I understand that diversity is rule of nature. How attributing your achievements to your father is misogynistic or primitive or regressive? Diversity is the key point, no? "Behind every man there's a woman", it's a saying, if he had said "This is wrong, behind a man's success, there's no woman" that would have been misogynistic, but he was not generalizing it, he was talking about himself and his life. If he feels that his father has done a lot for him, what's wrong in it?
As I pointed out an example from the movie Dangal, I never felt the movie was misogynistic, even when Geeta's mom was absent from biggest moment of her life.

When it comes to being regressive, I'd say why a woman is behind a man? Why not with him? This is a long debate and I am not up for it.

"So called Brijwasis" doing drama, I guess Colors is trying to cash in on their popularity, the difference is that they are being promoted as singers in a singing reality show, not as a Romeo.

About Monali, I do feel people are too harsh on her, from her looks to her singing, it's just not done, she is indeed a national award winner, not saying that makes her the best in the world, but I'd say she's surely not that bad, a lot of hard works goes into establishing yourself in any career.

There are over 2cr people in Punjab province, not all of them will vote for Rohan, but these community votes do play a role, example Gurjar community's votes for Manveer Gurjar in Bigg Boss, people go for door to door campaigning and all... It's all on the surface, I am not saying that's the only reason for Rohan to get the votes, but yes, rising star people don't promote him as a singer.

And at last, I agree that "Hate" was too strong a word, I agree so I take it back, I was rummaging through my vocabulary and couldn't stop at something between hatred and Dislike.
