Unhinged Remarks On Celina Jaitly, Rhea Chakraborty Prove Slut-Shaming Still Exists In 2023
Historically, women have been stigmatized as "slut" for various reasons, such as dressing in a sexually appealing manner or engaging in sexual activities beyond what's deemed socially acceptable.
In the recent past, calling out someone for slut-shaming might not have been a common practice. However, things have changed, and today's millennial women are bravely challenging societal attitudes that seek to shame them for embracing their sexual freedom.
Historically, women have been stigmatized as "slut" for various reasons, such as dressing in a sexually appealing manner or engaging in sexual activities beyond what's deemed socially acceptable.
The act of slut-shaming a woman is often unjustified and viewed as harmless gossip. However, this behaviour can perpetuate harmful stereotypes and judgments about women, portraying them as promiscuous, greedy, or unkind.
The judgment also discredits women's hard work; many may have preconceived notions that women sleep their way up.
One instance that has left the internet in absolute disgust is remarks made on Celina Jaitley. Umair Sandhu, who claims to be a film critic, has recently made a disturbing allegation against the actress.
According to his tweet, Jaitly had sexual relations with actor Feroz Khan and his son Fardeen Khan on several occasions.
Sandhu's provocative tweet suggests that the actress engaged in these acts to further her career.
Needless to say, the tweet is highly offensive and disturbing.
To begin with, the information provided by Umair Sandhu is unsolicited and uninteresting to most people. Additionally, it's unfair that only the actress is targeted in this situation. If that's the case, the male actors involved should also be held accountable and criticized for their misuse of power and privileges.

However, Celina Jaitly came up with a perfect response to the tweet, and we applaud her.
In her response, she shut down Sandhu's disrespectful comment and highlighted his need to seek medical help for his erectile dysfunction.
Dear Mr Sandhu hope posting this gave you the much needed girth & length to become a man & some hope to cure you of your erectile dysfunction. There are others ways to fix your problem..like going to a doctor, you must try it sometime! #celinajaitly @TwitterSafety pls take action https://t.co/VAZJFBS3Da

The actress's tweet was bold and witty, and we appreciate her standing up for herself. We also urge TwitterSafety to take action against Sandhu's tweet.

After Celina Jaitly's powerful response, numerous internet users commented on her tweet to offer support and solidarity.
In fact, some of them went as far as suggesting that the actress should take legal action against Umair Sandhu for defamation.
This suggestion is particularly noteworthy since it highlights the severity of Sandhu's actions and the potential consequences of spreading baseless and harmful rumours.
This comes just a few days after offensive remarks on actor Rhea Chakraborty.
On Monday, she announced she would be seen as the new gang leader in the upcoming ¡®MTV Roadies season. The show's makers unveiled the new promo of the ¡®Chehre¡¯ actor.
Shortly after the promo was out, late Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput¡¯s sister Priyanka Singh took to her social media account to drop a cryptic note in Hindi.
In the promo, Rhea said, "Aapko kya laga mein wapas nahi aaungi, darr jaungi? ab darne ki baari kisi aur ki."
This is wrong on so many grounds. Shameful.

Taking to Twitter, Priyanka wrote a cryptic post in Hindi which reads, "Tum kyun darogi? Tum to vyashya thi, ho aur rahogi! Prashna ye hai ki tumhare upbhogta kon hai? Koi sattadhari hi ye himmat de sakta hai. WhoResponsible 4Delay InSSRCs is obvious (sic)."
"Why will you be afraid? You were, are, and will continue to be a prostitute. But the question here is, who are your consumers? Only some ruler can give this courage," she wrote in Hindi.

After a severe backlash, Priyanka backtracked and clarified that her tweet was not directed to anyone. However, the damage was already done.
Being in the limelight comes at a cost, as every move they make is scrutinized and judged, from their choice of friends to their attire to the number of people they dine with.
But it's time to rethink and put a lid on our unhinged remarks that may have clouded others' judgement and disregarded their hard work.
