Hello @kritisanon,
1. Don't play the woman card. You were not criticized for your gender, but for your choice of clothes in an ad. You are bringing gender into this to make it a women's issue and seek wider support from women and male feminists. It's not a gender issue. Even Ranveer Singh was criticized on Twitter for a nude photoshoot. He didn't play the gender card.
2. Personal choice stops where public commercialization begins. What you wear off-camera is entirely your prerogative. You've been in this business for years. Until now, nobody bothered you about your choice of clothes. You know why? Because nobody actually cares what you wear. The outrage here comes from a commercial choice: sexualizing a deeply sacred festival celebrated by millions. Context dictates appropriateness. If a male actor appeared bare-chested while portraying the brother in that exact scene, the public pushback would be identical. The issue is sacredness and context, not gender.
3. Claiming "clothes don't define culture" directly contradicts human history. Attire is a foundational visual language of every global tradition, you cannot wear a Kimono and call it Indian ethnic wear, nor can you strip a festival of its sacred aesthetic without altering its significance. If attire truly has zero bearing on cultural respect, then tomorrow is Eid. Can you wear that exact same outfit you wore in that ad and wish Eid Mubarak? You said clothes don't define the respect you have for culture in your heart. So do it and we'll take our criticism back.
Respecting a tradition means honoring its context, not commodifying it under the guise of fashion.
@Ranjeetch08@SamsungMobile@SamsungIndia@nch1915@jagograhakjago If this is the way to treat customers who pre order phones then why should we go for Samsung ? I've used Galaxy S7 & S9+ in past. Used both phones without any issue & hence pre-ordered S23. Now I can't claim the warranty.
@Ranjeetch08@SamsungMobile@SamsungIndia@nch1915@jagograhakjago I've 2 green lines & a purple line on my S23 display after June 2026 update. I pre-ordered S23 before its launch. As its older than 3 years, I can't get warranty. I am asked to pay 13,000 INR to replace the display.
We have said this earlier. Unaccountable social media and a culture of virality seeking is damaging the idea of reality itself. If a bunch of self promoting narcissists are going to decide our reality backed by all power algorithms, then the very idea of civilisation is in question.

To @UnSubtleDesi for relentlessly documenting TMC crimes and to @jsaideepak for resolutely fighting post-poll violence cases. Both at great personal and professional risk.
The darkest hour they say is just before dawn. You endured that hour so we could greet the dawn. Thank you.
1. Just got off a call with @UnSubtleDesi. I couldn't be happier for her and both of us couldn't help but discuss the harrowing days of post poll violence in West Bengal in 2021. So I am going to share what happened five years ago just so ppl know what happened. #WestBengal2026.
While thousands of men spend years in Jail on false charges of rape in India, with courts denying bail saying "charges are serious"
Sonam Raghuvanshi got bail in what's considered as the most heinous crimes of humanity - A COLD BLOODED MURDER, in just 11 months
EQUALITY 🤡
@BellamSwathi I will always be thankful to my senses that prevented me from watching movies like Jawan, Pathaan, Ek Tha Tiger, War not only in theaters but also on OTT platforms. 😄😄
@TrulyMonica Gardish is certainly an underrated movie of Priyadrashan, Jackie Shroff & late Mr Amrish Puri. If u haven't seen then I would recommend to watch.
He is Harman Singh, an Indian-origin Sikh restaurateur in London who owned the restaurant 'Rangrez'.
His restaurant does not serve halal meat. His refusal to serve halal meat was based on his Sikh beliefs (preferring jhatka meat).
This decision led to online campaigns, threats, and protests against him. A crowd gathered outside his restaurant, and instead of taking action against them, the UK police arrested him.
This is what modern Britain has become.
T20 Matches are won and loss in "moments".
Harry Brook dropping that Sanju Samson sitter.
Axar Patel taking those blinders in the field.
Arshdeep persisting with that line outside off despite 3 wides to get that priced wicket of Will Jacks.
Tilak Varma hitting Archer for 3 sixes in an over in a knock of 21 that almost no one will remember.
Hardik Pandya with that effort and throw to knock out Bethell in the final over.
And of course.. Bumrah doing Bumrah things under pressure.
India showed composure in difficult moments. Backing their plans, keeping it simple and doing the basics right. England were always in the chase but India looked confident on the field that they would see this game through. And they did.
@vikrantgupta73 May be teams making strategy mainly for Abhishek & didn't give that importance to Ishan, Sanju, Shivam etc. & all these performed when India needed.
@choga_don Is this the same guy who fought with an OZ guy ? If yes then it's a security concern. Should be banned from Lanka to attend cricket matches.
@IS_Netwrk29 Indians watch the match just to see humiliation of Pak players, fans & PCB. Especially meltdown after the defeat. Otherwise we all know they themselves consider the win against India as fluke.
