Feminists are Angry Over Deepika Padukone

G GOWTHAM
We discovered Abhinandan Sekhri revealing shocking facts on the misogyny in the business in a recent podcast he held on news Laundry. His program is renowned for highlighting the industry's darker sides. He drew attention to the fact that the name "Shri" was placed next to the introduction of male stars in the kalki 2989 AD title cards. Prabhas, Kamal Hassan, and amitabh bachchan were among them. The traditional indian greeting of respect was used to introduce the principal male actors.
 

However, he made note of the fact that deepika padukone was presented using simply her name. He wondered why there was prejudice. Why weren't "Shrimati" or "Sushri" added to her name? Fans began to remark on the issue as well. Many brought up the important issues of the #Metoo movement and the gender pay gap that plague the entertainment business. They went on to say that such subtly offensive sexism exacerbates these issues. The mistake that the creators of kalki 2989 AD made is undoubtedly not one that feminists are pleased with.
 

Because of deepika Padukone's notoriety, kalki 2989 AD has received a lot of attention, and it is really troubling that she wasn't treated with the same dignity. Abhinandan Sekhri has been successful in inciting anger about the issue on social media. It will be fascinating to see whether or not the creators address the issue.
