Akshay Kumar called a crass alpha male by Mallika Dua?

The recent controversy over Akshay Kumar’s insensitive remark at Mallika Dua during the shoot of their episode of ‘The Great Indian Laughter Challenge’, when Mallika and her father, prominent journalist Vinod Dua lashed out at the actor on Facebook, it sparked a lot of debate. After this issue came into limelight, many came to Mallika’s support, but she was questioned as well. The reason being Mallika is no longer part of the show. Recently, Mallika Dua once again addressed the issue through a series of tweets.

The posts read, “Is Kareena Kapoor not entitled to speak about things because she played Chameli? Is Vidya Balan not entitled to speak about things because she did ‘The Dirty Picture’? The people who shame us for the characters we play are the same people who make it okay for a Bhupendra Chaubey to speak to Sunny Leone the way he did. Shame on you. Fortunately, you can’t stop us.” [sic] (Also Check: Rajinikanth, Akshay and team ‘2.0’ attend the press meet before the grand audio launch)

Further, she added, “This isn’t about Akshay Kumar. This is about every big Bollywood star and every other big shot, who cannot tell the difference between charm and harm. This is about every big celebrity who thinks his colleague enjoys being grabbed by the waist and twirled without her consent. This is about workplace etiquette for everybody, men and women included, and about understanding the idea of professional communication so we don’t make someone uncomfortable in their place of work, unintentionally or otherwise.”  [sic]

“Well, this shit makes us uncomfortable AF and we hate it. However, we are not the emotional fools most take us to be. I refuse to act on impluse and jeopardise my career for a race of crass alpha males with license to make us cringe. It amounts to commiting suicide just cause every second person in the world is an asshole or not crossing the road because accidents happen. So, yes we are 100% complicit in letting it pass, sometimes for our own sake,” [sic] she further wrote

“Was it the single most vile act of inappropriate behaviour? No. Was it enough to make one uncomfortable? Yes. Would the superstar be offended had someone jokingly said to his daughter, ‘Nitaara ji, aap bell bajaaiye main aapko bajaata hoon’? – Most probably,” concluded Mallika Dua. [sic]
