New Delhi: AIB Knockout with Ranveer Singh and Arjun Kapoor is garnering enough criticism from all around - criticism for being overtly abusive and extraordinary vulgar.
People with 'well cultivated' grey matter have opposed the already popular special restructuring of AIB panelists and these probably two of the most 'coolest' Bollywood men we have ever had.
While reasons of the criticism vary from being 'morally harmful' to 'obscenely bold,' one thing that visibly concerned the criticizers after 'critically reviewing' the video was Deepika Padukone's being 'horrifically happy' attitude.
They mentioned that if the dignified actress can laugh over such abusive 'jokes,' then she has no right to object on things that actually objectified her as a woman. Well first, quite a good relation (Deepika laughing=Deepika should be fine with her cleavage show).
Though each person here is entitled to his/her own view over things happening around, each person like Deepika too is entitled to laugh on something she perceives as a joke. And while people claiming that a lady has double standards if she is objecting one who is showcasing her and laughing at one who is joking at her, we say it's that lady's wish and will.
Are we really here to teach a woman as established as Deepika Padukone that that these are the set of things on which you can laugh and following are the things that you should deem as threat to your dignity?
AIB Knockout actually used many freaking abusive words in the entire show. And the language used by our 'heroes' Arjun and Ranveer was more-than-worse. Yeah it really was!
But, how does this deter to the morals of youth who are getting carved in such a Popsicle society.
Ever heard a college group debating within themselves or gossip of girls when they bitch about their guy friends? Well, the fact is that the youth today feels more related to such a no-fictional if not real portrayal of the society than Karan Johar's overwhelming 'adarshwadi' stories and romance in exotic backgrounds locales.
Things like AIB Knockout with Ranveer Singh and Arjun Kapoor might not be a perfect something to describe how a society should shape like but it is a more-than-perfect something to describe how a society would liked to be shaped - liberal, expressive, fearless with a courage to take a joke on oneself.
And while there is always a chance to shut your system and opt for not watching it, it takes a lot of courage to get on stage, talk filth and still be unimaginably popular and lovable.
It's not about platforms like AIB, outspoken personalities like Ranveer and Arjun, but about the youth today who does not believe in judging everything catered to them, but watching it and leaving it for the sake of entertainment.
