Saying it again - #Bollywood is all worked up because it cannot control the narrative anymore. Journos covering tinsel town know all dark secrets but cannot write thanks to massive business their org get from movies. This fixed match was broken by social media and @republic
Editors, journos covering Bollywood ask soft questions to keep stars happy for getting access and ensure they come for their award shows. That's the main job. Majority of magazine covers are paid. You think these guys would even dare to expose inside stories? Nope
Did anyone even question SRK on his business partners link with ISI? Was there an Aamir interview on why he met Turkey's first lady in these times? Has Mahesh Bhatt being ever grilled on his dubious role defending terror? No. Journos are being used to kill these stories.
Why Mrs B never said to Sanjay Dutt, SRK, Aamir - jis thaali mein khate ho, usi me....? She won't. Arre she didn't even question her own partymen making sexist remarks on women and defending rapists.
This is member of so-called first family of Bollywood. Selective in defence
As responsible member of industry one would expect Mrs B to extend support to investigative agencies, allow truth to come out, let guilty be punished,defend a woman actor targetted by a rogue political party and above all not attack a self-made Bhojpuri actor and fellow MP. Sigh
To those sending me messages 2 give credit to Times Now I will say this - I was withTimes group for 14 yrs. They are playing good cop (TV) vs bad cop (print, digital). They may swing all ways as big revenue comes from Bollywood. Republic, however you may hate, is consistent
