Kangana Ranaut Slams New Tanishq Ad, Says It Not Only Promotes Love-Jihad But Sexism As Well

The new Tanishq ad has created quite a stir online. There has been a huge debate on this new ad where a Hindu girl is grateful for being accepted in a Muslim family as they celebrate Hindu tradition of God-bharai. Soon, the ad received a lot of flak and the ad-makers decided to pull it down.

Tanishq Ad should have also shown the baby is born and both the families are excited to celebrate the khatna ceremony. Peak secularism.#tanishq

And now actress Kangana Ranaut has strongly reacted to it saying,

¡°This advert is wrong on many levels, Hindu bahu is living with the family for significant amount of time but acceptance happens only when she is carrying their heir. So what is she just a set of ovaries? This advert does not only promote love-jihad but also sexism¡±.

She even insisted the ad makers to not fall prey to the creative terrorists, ¡°As Hindus we need to be absolutely conscious of what these creative terrorists are injecting in to our subconscious, we must scrutinise, debate and evaluate what is the outcome of any perception that is fed to us, this is the only way to save our civilisation #tanishq¡±.

Talking against the ad, she also said, ¡°The concept wasn¡¯t as much a problem as the execution was, the fearful Hindu girl apologetically expressing her gratitude to her in-laws for the acceptance of her faith, Isn¡¯t she the woman of the house? Why is she at their mercy? Why so meek and timid in her own house? Shameful.¡±

While actress Richa Chadha called the ad lovely and balsy, ¡°TBH, reacting to paid twitter trends and manufactured outrage is just myopic. The ad was lovely. Standing by it would have made 'em cooler, foresighted and balsy. But alas. #tanishq¡±.
