Kriti Sanon Tackles Patriarchy & Women's Safety Online
26 Sep
Summary
- Actress Kriti Sanon shared posts questioning gender debates.
- She highlighted differing reactions to violence and clothing.
- Her comments arose amid outrage over a Bihar harassment incident.
Actress Kriti Sanon has voiced her views on patriarchy and women's safety across social media. She shared posts that reject the notion of gender discussions being framed as a conflict between men and women.
Sanon's activity also supported commentary that pointed out differing levels of public outcry. These reactions often appeared disproportionate when comparing violence against women to criticism of women's clothing.
Her recent online engagement occurred as a reported harassment incident in Jamui, Bihar, garnered significant attention. The incident involved two students, and videos circulating online led to police action, including an FIR under the POCSO Act.
This situation has also brought back memories of Sanon's own experience with criticism over a Raksha Bandhan advertisement. She had previously defended her attire, stating that culture resides in the heart, not in clothing.
Television actor Abigail Pande echoed similar sentiments, drawing a parallel between the Jamui incident's outrage and the backlash Sanon received for her advertisement.
