Even
though the world is progressing, mindsets of certain people are still stuck in
the Stone Age, and actors become the easy targets of such regressive
mentalities. Slut-shaming is one such issue that is faced every now and then.
From Deepika Padukone to Priyanka Chopra, Sana Sheikh, Esha Gupta etc.,
everybody has fought back situations where they were trolled for their attires.
Prachi
Tehlan, who is portraying a ‘tomboy’ in her ongoing show ‘Ikyawann took the
podium to express her viewpoint. “Passing judgments on what a person wears has
always been disturbing for me. While playing the character of Susheel in my
show, I got a better understanding of how such unpleasant and unwelcoming
comments influence a girl’s mindset. Nobody has the authority to bash others
for their dress sense,” said Prachi.
Talking
about any bad experience she had, Prachi is thankful that she never dealt with
anything as such. “Since the day I was born (3 October 1993) I never
encountered infuriating personalities of these kinds. No matter what I opted
for, my parents supported me thoroughly. From being a sports person to an
actor, I was always backed by my closed ones. And this is the reason why I can
confidently make decisions for myself today. The crux of the matter is, nobody’s
opinion counts if your closed ones don’t have a problem with what you do, what
you say or what you wear.”
Referring
to the Padmavati actor Ranveer Singh-who was trolled for his attires- Prachi
added, “Even the guys in our industry face such meaningless criticisms. This
clearly reflects that issue is not about girls or boys, what to wear and what
not to, rather it’s the people who have a built-in habit of judging others for
no reason.”
Well,
that’s similar to the attitude we get to see of our very beloved celebrities.
Say it Deepika, Priyanka, or Esha Gupta, all these have either chosen to remain
unfazed by the criticism or have wittingly hit back at the trolls.
In
today’s time, celebrities are ideals of our society and hence bear the
responsibility to set the right example for general public. It’s good to see
them as people who are confident in themselves.
