This comment is with context to a scene in Shahid Kapoor’s film Kabir Singh in which he slaps Kiara Advani’s character Preeti. The film itself was criticized by a section of people for glorifying misogyny, toxic masculinity and violence.
Meanwhile, Sandeep Reddy Vanga was also called a ‘hypocrite’ by Netizens after his post on women's safety. They recalled certain scenes in Kabir Singh, where we see the male slapping the female and the part where the lead actor wants to rape a woman on knifepoint but he lets her go, and called out the director for his hypocrisy.
