BOYCOTT BOLLYWOOD 🔥🔥🔥 1. Boycott is a genuine expression of Freedom of speech recognized under constitution of India and also, in US as well it is protected under first amendment 2. There is difference in ban, cancel culture and boycott.There is difference between cancel culture and boycott call. Cancel culture is when you cancel someone because of its political ideologies or race, sex, religion. Complain to his/her manager that he support BJP/Congress and get him removed. Boycott call is protected under fundamental right, you are not asking to ban Amir Khan or to ban his movie from releasing. He has fundamental right to work in movies, release in theater and earn out it. I have the right protected to be vocal about my choice and influence other by announcing my choice to them. Yes, I don't have the right to grab someone and not allow them to watch the movie, if anybody wats they shall be allowed. Free market economics. Just like people vocal about their political choice and even ask to boycott other party. No one is asking to ban his work, Amir Khan is entitled to work, release his movie and as a consumer of his product, we have the right to reject it. 3. Boycott Lal Singh Chadda has many dimension and various group are boycotting it on different ground & reasons: a) 1st Group: His previous work shows he is selective in criticism to Hinduism alone but never utter a single word of criticism on his own religion Islam. In previous movie PK, he targeted core belief of Hinduism and made mockery, but on other hand he criticized only muslims, followers of Islam but never any core beliefs of Islam. People noticed this pattern of hypocrisy b) 2nd Group: Amir Khan in past, never commented on any other political personality except the present prime minister many years back. He attributed that he is directly responsible for death of muslims in a riot without any proof. Even though the Supreme court found he is not responsible, he never apologized for the statement. It shows he had a political agenda motivated and without proof he can give such statement. c) 3rd Group: 7 years back he said as a Muslim he is feeling unsafe in India and leave India. possibly to paint a picture to malign the current political dispensation and leadership. Same India that made him superstar and shower so much love and respect, he spit on us Indians. d) 4th Group: This is the majority group who view things in larger context. They are boycotting entire bollywood movies irrespective of whichever actor in lead. This is because a research has been done by a professor called Dheeraj Sharma from IIM Ahmedabad. He found that Bollywood selectively criticize Hinduism, shows Hindus in bad light, shows muslims and Islam in a very pleasing manner and in good light. Out of 20 movies released in Pakistan, 18 movies shows Pakistani common man as broad minded and loving whereas Indians as regressive & closed minded and fueling hatred. Also, Bollywood promotes nepotism and doesn't allow talented actors to rise or will conspire to bring them down, it gained traction after death of Sushant Singh Rajput, who was an outsider. No justice till date. 5. People who are saying separate Art from Artist and judge them based on thier work in reel life and keep real life separate is very hollow argument. Artist can't be separated from Art, otherwise, based on thier reel life how come these actors have a brand value in real life and they get endorsement. Yes, thier real life will affect reel life as well. Based on brand value in real life, they are offered different fees to act in reel life. Fans even emulate and idolize them in real life. 6. The argument is very hollow and lack substance: "Why shall you boycott a movie because of one or two person as movie making is team work and loads of other people are involved in the creation process?" Lets imagine a cheap resturant which serve bad taste & unhygenic food but employ 100s of people and there is a restaurant which is little expensive but it serves very tasty and hygienic food but employ 20 employees. Will you just eat in the cheap resturant which serve bad food just because it will provide employment to 100 of people. By that logic, an tobacco company shall encourage every indians to consume tobacco because it is really labour intensive companies and generate lot of employment opportunities for poor people. 7. The lead actors always have disproportional share in the movie profit. In facts most of the Bollywood have such ridiculous budget is because these lead actors charge exorbitantly high acting fee. They even have profit sharing contracts along with distributors. Majority of the technicians involved are paid on project basis and usually done before the release. Once the post-production is over, they are already paid. Hence, passing the morality to public would be too harsh to think about their 250 where as their own fraternity treat their own crew very disproportionally economically. Even when movie will get success, these crew will hardly get enough public limelight, as the limelight will be reserved by the lead actors. 8. As a responsible citizen, we shall try to not allow bad influence affect our society. We know as matter of fact that, these Bollywood actors have huge fan following and people emulate & idolize them. Shall we allow these to happen just because it will affect employment of so many more technicians. Suppose, today youth everyone start smoking which is legal, it will generate lot of employment opportunity for who work in tobacco factory. Shall we promote it? The influence of lead character matters, I was a big fan of Kevin Spacey in House of Card show, he is brilliant actor. However, he has been removed from the show because allegation of sexual offense of young men came to light. I agree with decision even though I used to be big fan of him. Let me give you more facts, a research has been done by Mr. Dheeraj Sharma, an eminent professor of IIM Ahmedabad, currently in IIM Rohtak. His research team randomly selected 50 films from each decade, from the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s and 2000s and 2010s. Here are some findings: 1. 58% of the corrupt politicians in films were Hindu ‘brahmins’ 2. 62% of the corrupt businessmen were from the Hindu ‘vaishya’ caste 3. In around 78% films, women with ‘loose characters’ happened to be Christians 4. Around 74% films presented Sikh characters as laughable. 5. 84% of Muslim characters were shown as strongly religious and honest (even when their character in the movie, was that of a criminal). 6. 20 Bollywood films which released in Pakistan. “18 of these presented Pakistani people as welcoming, courteous, open-minded and courageous. On the contrary, the Pakistan government was demonstrated as fundamentalist, unwelcoming, and jingoist. However, in the same movie, Indians were largely projected as narrow-minded, unwelcoming, and conservative” 7. He also selected 35 movies each from Bollywood and Hollywood from 1950-2010. He found in Hollywood, out of 35, in 22 movies the hero either have shown to visited church or near the church scene. Compare it to Bollywood, out of 35, only 7 in which hero visited temple. 8. In 78% Hollywood and 80% Bollywood, church father is shown to be honest, dedicated to his religion, caring, compassionate, whereas in Bollywood, in 71% of them Temple pujari is shown to be corrupt, immoral, doesn't speak truth, deceiving or cunny. 9. There are 1000s of example, but let me give you one example: In Amar-Akbar-Anthony movie, all 3 were son of a killer and smuggler Kishanlal, a Hindu. Akbar and Anthony both get adopted by kind hearted Muslims and Christians but in the movie, Amar you can guess is adopted by a Hindu, but his father is never shown hindu. Akbar visit mosque for namaz, even do qawallli in sufi shrine; Anthony goes to church and even talks to church father many times. On the other hand possibly Hindu Amar, never shown to visit temple, he simply exist without any religious Identity. (i have 1000s of examples) 10.

Just like people vocal about their political choice and even ask to boycott other party. "Can Art be separated from Artist, people are saying don't mix his personal with his profession" If Art can be separated from Artist and as per you people shall understand it is just an acting, why do scene include disclaimer "Do not attempt this stunt at home" & " Smoking or Drinking is injuries to health" because they are influencers and we know people emulate & idolize them. If actor matter only inside movie then how come actors have brand value outside movie in real life with huge brand endorsement.?
