The Hrithik-Kangana public feud has to be the murkiest and the most consuming war of words Bollywood has ever had. Not just the film fraternity, it is hands down the most-talked about spat we have ever seen.
And while justice seems to be taking its own time, testimonials in the meantime, have started pouring in.
That’s right. After Farhan Akhtar and Yami Gautam came out and defended Hrithik in their open letters, now ‘Kaabil’ actor, Rohit Roy has penned a powerful Facebook post supporting his friend and colleague. Read his post here.Â
“Enough has been spoken/guessed/opinioned about the ongoing feud between a dear friend and colleague of mine and an actor who’s been till recently known for her histrionic ability… I have nothing but regard for her work and have personally congratulated her several times for the same… but now it’s this mess which has become an introduction for her and that’s the sad truth …
More importantly, I am definitely not biased towards my friend in any way… nor does our recent film together have any bearing on what I’m about to write… I don’t even know why I’m writing this piece but whenever I find myself perturbed about anything, the best way to express myself, I feel, is writing about it.. and I feel like although he doesn’t need my support, I will feel better if I extend it to him anyway…
Without getting into the nitty-gritty of what, why, where, when etc (which has been done to death in any case) I’d like to say that, me, like every other respectable human being, am appalled by the way Indian women are treated in a country where we worship the Devi as the strongest Divine force (shakti) BUT to just say oh she’s a woman and hence she must be right is a great disservice to the man in question and I do not think that even a self-respecting lady would agree with this line of thought. I’d like to ask all these people commenting on social media one question. Do you really know what transpired or are you basing your comments on heresy ??! Do you have such in-depth knowledge about their relationship (non-existent in this case!) that you are pronouncing a verdict ??
What I want to say that whatever I know about him and the step that he has taken to fight for his name which is being maligned without fact or reason is something that only a man with a strong sense of dignity and character would have the courage to do. Anyone else would probably have let it pass with the belief that stuff like this eventually blows over and that audience memory is short lived… had he the littlest of doubts about his own behaviour in this matter, he would most certainly have not stirred the hornet’s nest…
Think about it… it’s very simple really…anyway it’s only my understanding and opinion on the subject and I hope it all gets sorted soon so all people concerned can move on peace…
God bless.”
God bless.”
Conclusive or not, Rohit’s words certainly add perspective to the entire picture and raises questions that cannot go unanswered. And it is a matter of time before that happens. Or so we hope.
