For years, Salman Khan and the big names of this industry mastered the art of strategic distance, politics is always off-limits. Controversies are sidestepped saying “Bhai doesn’t get into all that.”
Now, what changed? Pressure! He can see co-stars quietly posting about CJP protest, fans are asking why the industry’s biggest voice box was on mute. With the statement, he made his silence look less neutral. However, where was he till now?
In that familiar movie fraternity, these patterns continue with more actors speaking up at the same time in a row as if pre-decided. Every celeb tweet on CJP reads like it rolled off the top of the tongue and very calculated. Let’s see who all played safe now.
*Students at FTII put up posters mocking Madhavan for not speaking out. After being called out, he backed the students.
*Alia Bhatt used Instagram to praise their courage.
*Tamil actor and Rajya Sabha MP Kamal Haasan also addressed the nationwide NEET protests in a strong social media post.
The industry’s other faces were finally on the protest site including names like Huma Qureshi, Saqib Saleem, Gurfateh Pirzada, Pratibha Ranta, Imran Khan, Jim Sarbh, Ayesha Khan, etc. standing with students, shoulder to shoulder. The Telugu film industry is still largely staying silent on the CJP youth protests.
