This is so endearing because 16 women die every day because of dowry related cases. Nobody will EVER say this to women. And this coming from a woman. Using sensational cases to ask men to do due diligence because “women are dangerous” should be nauseating to utter but here we are

[Shilpa Godbole @godbole_shilpa]

One woman commits a crime & suddenly it's a referendum on womanhood.
Thousands of dowry deaths later, we are still told not to judge all men. Principles change depending on the gender of the accused.

I’m still not over the fact that YRF convinced not just Ranveer Singh and Anushka Sharma but even audiences that they’re not good looking. I mean??????

[goma @soigomaa]

The movie "Obsession" proved that it requires demonic possession & magic spells to make a woman as violent as the average man.

If there was ever a monologue that could compete with that Kartik Aryan shitshow from that even shittier movie, it’s Tripti Dimri’s scene where she shoots off on her husband in Maa Behen.

Monday watchers assemble!

[Uday Bhatia @yooday]

Press screenings here are the worst. Entitled jerks with their phones out, talking, recording scenes. Much worse behaved than regular paying audiences who will at least try and engage with a film

Obsession: WHAT THE FUCK DID I JUST WATCH

Men: “protect the unborn”

Also men: abandoning pregnant partners, abusing them, murdering them, demanding sons like women control genetics, and leaving mothers to raise children alone.

the hypocrisy is actually insane.

[Swetha @swethar__]

A recent movie has brought back the algorithm and trends to this 80-90s iconic music superstar. Seems like we’ve forgotten child abuse allegations against him…

These are exactly the kind of tweets I'm still on this app for.

when i'm talking to someone who doesn't speak urdu and i want to say khair but i end up saying anyway and then i sit a bit forlorn because what is anyway next to khair, the great affability of khair

[The Bad Engineer @Satirical_Dhruv]

New India has everything: hottest cities, dirtiest air, shrinking forests, and people still believe that a leader with no real degree, no real answers, and a teleprompter for basic sentences can solve the country’s problems. Cute!

[Swetha @swethar__]

The zombie comedy is Bollywood’s new obsession: atleast 5 of them coming out in the next 18 months.

The “intense love story” demand after Saiyaara seems to have died out sooner than anticipated.

[The Iran Spectator @IR_Media24]

Punishment for child rape :

OTTPlay is shutting down and some of us lost our writing spaces. I have been reviewing at least one of Eng/Hindi/Tamil/Malayalam films close to 13 years now. If you are an editor looking for an experienced film critic, let me know. You can find my work at https://t.co/GoU87qgU53

I dared to look at the Dhurandhar films from Yalina's point of view.

[The Federal @TheFederal_News]

Can a film like Dhurandhar dare to position a character like Yalina outside the realm of pawn-romantic interest, emotional core? What would it look like if she participated in the same war that Hamza is waging? writes @swethar__.

wake up, brush with fake sensodyne, have bad poha for breakfast, travel to work inhaling high aqi air by private vehicles using costly fuel, eat fake paneer for lunch, drink sewage water, back home avoiding potholes, rash drivers and falling objects, watch photoshoots on news, sleep, pay taxes.
