Kriti Sanon calls social media ‘FAKEST, most toxic’
Kriti Sanon and (inset) with Sushant Singh Rajput
Apart of my heart has gone with you’ — these words conveyed what actor Kriti Sanon felt after actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s death on June 14. The two costarred in Raabta (2017), and despite being romantically linked, maintained they were good friends. However, on Wednesday, Sanon again took to social media — this time to slam online portals and trolls who obsessed over why the 29-year-old didn’t post a tribute for Rajput on social media immediately after news of his death. HER NOTE:
It’s strange that the otherwise trolling, gossiping world suddenly wakes up to your niceness and positive side once you are gone.. Social media is the FAKEST, most toxic place.. and if you haven’t posted RIP or said something publicly, you are considered not to be grieving, when in reality, those are the people grieving for REAL. It seems Social Media is the new “Real” world.. and the Real world has become “Fake”,
Some MEDIA people have completely lost their motive and sensitivity.. Banging the car window and saying “madam sheesha neeche karo na” to get a clearer picture of someone going for a funeral.. Funeral is a very private and personal affair.. I request media to either not be present there or at least maintain some dignity and distance. Behind the starry glitter and the so-called glamour, we are normal human beings with the same feelings as you..
There should be RULES for Journalism- someone should define whats acceptable, whats not, what falls under “journalism”, and what comes under “None of Your Business” and “Live and let live”.
Blind Items should be ILLEGAL, should be banned! They should come under Mental Harassment! So either have proof and some f***ing guts to write the names, or don’t write it at all! You write “hear-say” and call it journalisms while you have no idea how badly that can affect someone’s mind, their family, their life...
We need to stop phrases like “ladke nahi rote”, “aise nahi rote”, “don’t cry, be strong”.. Crying is not a sign of weakness.. so cry your heart out, scream if you need to, know everything that you are feeling, its ok to not be ok, but talk it out with the one you feel might understand. Hold onto your family and people who genuinely love and care about you..
