The comments made by a senior journalist seems to have deeply hurt actor and filmmaker Renu Desai. She took to social media and posted the video of the journalist speaking about her personal life and bashed him by expressing her opinion in a straightforward manner. Now, she made another post questioning the current behavior of society. PlayUnmute / Loaded: 1.16% Fullscreen
She wrote, “I just wanted to know what is journalism? Is talking about celebrities and their personal lives real journalism? Is the personal life of film people really disturbing the society or law and order? Anyway film critics and reviewers write and talk what they feel like about the movies we make under freedom of expression and creative writing. We can’t protest about it because it’s a form of art and it’s for public consumption but our detailed personal lives are not something that comes under journalism.”
She added, “Because of YouTube and twitter and instagram it’s become a very normal thing for any person to sit and talk about the details of our personal life. And looking at the views it reflects on the society negative mindset in general. Imagine a day when all the creative people in this world go on a strike and stop writing, painting, making films, writing books, writing poetry, making music or singing. Imagine what would the 95% of the population do? Imagine a life without any new releases on Friday. Imagine a world without any songs for us to sing.”
She further wrote, “All creative people are sensitive souls in their truest essence. They just want to act, sing, dance, paint and express their emotions via a form of art. Yes, we have some personal life issues and problems like every other human in this world. We have love and heart breaks too. We also make mistakes in our lives. But for some people just to make a profit on our pain is not ethically or morally right or justified. Having a break up or divorce is not a crime. If I want to talk about my feelings and emotions and relationships, then that’s my choice and whether to watch that video or not is your choice. But for some men, sitting in a chair and dissecting and gossiping about a celebrity’s personal life is not respectful journalism I believe.”
