Sanjay Dutt's Old Video Teaching 'Mardangiri' Goes Viral, People Slam His 'Toxic Masculinity'

People might forget, but the internet never does. Years later, things resurface and your past comes back to haunt you.

Randeep Hooda was removed as the ambassador of Convention for the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (CMS) after an old video of him cracking a dirty and sexist joke on Mayawati went viral.

Now, a clip of Sanjay Dutt talking about Mardangiri is going viral from the past couple of days and people are once again slamming his toxic masculinity.

An old advertisement of Sanjay Dutt is doing the rounds in which he is slamming men for resorting to "feminine" activities. The video is titled Sanjay Dutt - Mardangiri.

In this video from 2008, Sanjay Dutt explains what Mardangiri is and how it is in "danger". He even complains about men who spend more time in beauty parlours than gyms and takes care of babies and do cooking at home. He even called out men for wearing girly colours like pink, mauve and purple.

"They want to feel like behenjis¡­wear clothes like behenjis, put on lotions and creams like behenjis".

"Let¡¯s not have anything to do with facial and lip gloss, and hand creams, and counting calories, and flowery perfumes¡­ or flowery anything. This is the new kranti (revolution) I want to start for men¡­it¡¯s called Mardangiri (Manliness)".

"Let¡¯s not shave or wax our legs and chest, let¡¯s grow beard and stubbles," he adds.

In the end, he concludes, "This is the new kranti I want to start for men¡­ it¡¯s mardangiri."

The advertisement is for Haywards 5000. Although it was taken down, it keeps resurfacing from time to time.
