According to you, is it celebs' own choice how they lead life in public, what they say, do or wear or endorse or should they be more responsible about their stature and impact of their words, actions on public?
Like I see Ajay, Akshay, Amitabh, Kapil Dev, SRK, Pierce Brosnan etc bashed for endorsing pan masala.
Or Rekha bashed for still expressing love for Amitabh or dressing like a bride. Or Hema bashed for her personal life choices like marrying a married man. Or Jaya bashed for being grumpy. Or Kangana swinging from feminism, liberalism to right wing nationalism - depending on whatever that suits her at any given moment.
Or many celebs were bashed for endorsing Coke, Pepsi, Thums Up when controversy broke out about these things having pesticides in them.
Celebs are bashed for their religious beliefs, totke, political beliefs, personal lives too. Ash and Amitabh were bashed for upay they did before Abhi and Ash wedding and accused of promoting superstitions in a deeply sexist and already superstitious country like India.
Kareena is bashed for marrying Saif and naming her sons Taimur and Jehangir.
Salman and Sanjay Dutt have been accused of being posterboys of toxic masculinity and being bad example for young boys.
Swara, Richa, Naseer, Javed, Shabana, Kangana, Vivek etc have been bashed for ideologies or parties they support.
My question is, where does it stop? Is a celeb always public property with no life or freedom of their own? Should they always keep public in mind before doing anything or choosing any film or ad?
Deepika was shamed for choosing to do Gehraiyan as a married woman. Amitabh has been shamed for films like Nishabd, Cheeni Kum, Boom etc. Kareena was shamed for Veere di wedding 'despite being a mom and married woman'.
Where does it stop? Where do celebs and public draw the line?
