Actress Parineeti Chopra and Varun Dhawan on Friday slammed the social media reaction to pictures of Pakistani actor Mahira Khan smoking with Ranbir Kapoor being released online.
In the photos, the Raees star is seen in a white backless dress actor with Kapoor on a street in New York.
Chopra said: “I’ll just say one line. It’s a little unfair. Everybody knows it’s unfair and it’ll stop. Today, because of social media, everything becomes too big a deal.”
The actress was speaking at the trailer launch of Golmaal Again.
“Shame on them for shaming her,” Dhawan said in an interview.
Pakistani star Ali Zafar also took to Instagram and wrote: “What has happened to us? Have we lost all sense of sensibility? Must we choose gossip, intrigue and the self-appointed right of judgement over restrain, grace, tolerance and compassion?”
He added: “Every woman has the right to make her own choices in life (as long as she’s not hurting anyone else) just like we men do. How we react defines our own character. Choose wisely for we all shall be judged.”
