Netizens SLAM Karan Johar and Call Him ‘Hypocrite’ As He Talks About Violence Against Women!
Karan Johar, who recently visited Davos in Switzerland for the World Economic Forum 2019, discussed over the issue of ‘violence against women’ and shared an insight on Instagram. He captioned the video as saying, “Like @katja_iversen rightly said, “Violence against women is not a women’s issue, it’s a societal issue.” honored to be a part of this amazing panel for a much-needed discussion, and to share my thoughts on how we can all – collectively – stop violence against women. It’s imperative that we take action and measures. #wef19 @worldeconomicforum.”
But netizens are anything but impressed with Karan and they left no chance to slam the director and also called him a ‘hypocrite’. The outrage on Karan Johar’s page was really surprising.
“Look whose talking. You were the one who was laughing a lot when Hard-dikhead was making derogatory comment against the women. #hypocrites.”
“The problem with such kind of speech in a forum like this is people (at least the insta crowd) are intelligent enough to see through the veneer. You can’t be talking feminism, gender equality and then make a movie where women are objectified or run a show full of sexual innuendos denigrating womenfolk. Mr. Johar you are an intelligent mind and definitely more humane than many industry filks. Please b a lil more responsible. ”
“The Man who is famous for bullshit, who now talking bullshit on serious issue is also a big bullshit!!”
“I heard your words in Davos, and I take you up on this.. as a producer, writer, director. We’ll see if you walk the walk and not just talk.. It has to stop with daft screenplays, weak female roles and stereotyping, item numbers with close ups on certain body parts, suggestive lyrics, women being portrayed as possessions and property, submissive behaviour of ‘daughters’, etc. etc.
“You literally killed off a female character in your movie bc she didn’t like the male protagonist in the script that YOU wrote. Are you kidding me by posting this.”
“Yes said rightly but look how you dress up your heroines in movies!! That’s ultimate objectification!! Please walk the talk. I want to see your words in action.”
Do you think Karan needs to pay attention to netizens?
