Whether you liked the film or not, Alia Bhatt-starrer Darlings has kickstarted a debate on social media. While some people are appreciating the movie for highlighting the issue of domestic violence, there are others who think the film made a mockery of such a grave issue.
In the midst of this all,?Sandeep Reddy Vanga's interview is going viral on social media once again. The director of Kabir Singh had made national headlines and received massive backlash for glorifying and romanticising misogyny and violence in a relationship. He made some controversial statements while he was trying to justify his film. The fact that he truly believed slapping a woman is true love made many people engaged.?
Talking about those who lashed out at Kabir Singh, he said, "Probably they never experienced (love) in the right way. They were only on the feminist side, they didn¡¯t speak about anything else."?
The director was surprised that the conversation was mostly centered around the themes and not the technical aspects of his film. He said this was perhaps because "They (the critics) hate me."
Some men, after watching Darlings, feel that the film justified violence against men and even mocked it.?
Meanwhile, most people are praising Alia Bhatt, Vijay Verma and Shefali Shah for their impeccable performances in the movie.?
