Sexual harrassement in Film industry is always inevitable.
There is no film without young HERO & HEROIN in Romance. This gives them unconditional access to do the same even behind the camera. To my sister Heroins, when you agree to do it in front of camera, how can you expect it will not be done when you are off the camera. I believe there cannot be even 10% of any such films without sexual harrassements.
What a strange stupid double standard.
Whenever male and female gather in socially, People always shout, proclaim, it is our Indian Cultaure not to mix and enjoy together. I am a practicing Muslim, I support it. This is perfect, very good, but how it is coveyed is a hypocracy.
When we allow all films to show this nude, shamelss romance, we dont talk, we keep our mouths shut.
Not only that, we go to CINEMA to watch such films even with our family members.
As long as we stop our double standard specially allowing romancing films, this will continue.
If we are serious, we should stop it from the grass root level. Not stopping from the end.
I dont say we Muslims are perfect, but when compared, the rate of such mishaps is very minimal.
Why cant we follow good teachings from any religion regardless what religion is it.
Because if iti is a true religion is for all, Because it is coming from the TRUE ONE & ONLY GOD OF ALL.
it can not be limited to any particular community.
God help us.
