When Deepika and Ranveer weren't committed, she was single, ready to mingle and so was he. He has now chosen to be with her and so has she!
Koffee With Karan Season 8 premiered on Disney+Hotstar yesterday and peeps are already killing themselves trouncing the show.
As is usual, it is the woman who is getting all the brickbats for confessing on this chat about her sowing the wild oats when she was unattached.
Uff!
To be young, footloose and fancy-free!
Let me disclose my cards right away saying this piece ain’t a herald for a wild child or a wilder life.
But You aren’t committed until you are sure and committed! Period!!
Because Life is already a mandated slog without the advised 70 work hours. Plus Marriage is a bigger job to ace. You gotta be absolutely certain hence!
Sure them stars are in the business of showbiz and chasing relentlessly the limelight by garnering eyeballs is the aim of every action of their carefully curated online lives. But surely at the end of the day, they are mere humans with beating hearts?
The hate that gets unleashed does scar souls no matter how seasoned and savvy these actors are.
Especially since Deepika has been pretty candid about her struggles with mental health and anxiety and seeking professional help!
You have to see to believe the amount of vitriol that gets spewed by the SM trolls angling for viewers’ participation. One nasty poster actually admits being surprised about the massive engagement thereby leading to attractive emoluments.
Should he be lauded because Ranveer allows Deepika to be with her ex socially?
Allow? Is Deepika a kid?
Cinema-wise, while he can smooch away to glory with her ex’s current she has to toe the Lakshman Rekha? Truly electrifying thought dynamics.
As two consenting adults, they decide their marital rules.
Ranveer isn’t a man-child who needs to be watched over and commiserated with for his wife’s alleged dalliances before she said yes to him. She was single and ready to mingle and so was he. He has chosen to be with her and so has she!
To all the conscious keepers of the eternally crumbling social mores, the world would die but for your watchful eye, eh?
I understand. Unhappiness and fear are sold at breakneck speed and are gold for business. Collective distress is collateral damage. Peddling happiness is antediluvian and better left as an individual pursuit.
That’s that!

UP Boards Topper Prachi Nigam was trolled on social media for her facial hair; our obsession with appearance is harsh on young minds.
Prachi Nigam’s photo has been doing the rounds on social media for the right reasons. Well, scratch that- I wish the above statement were true. This 15-year-old girl should ideally be revelling in her spectacular achievement of scoring a whopping 98.05% and topping her tenth-grade boards. But oddly enough, along with her marks, it’s something else that garners more attention – her facial hair.
While the trolls are driving themselves giddy by mocking this girl who hasn’t even completed her school yet, the ones who are taking her side are going one step ahead – they are sharing her photoshopped pictures, sans the facial hair, looking nothing less than a celebrity with captions saying – “Prachi Nigam, ten years later”.
Doctors have already diagnosed her with PCOD in their comments, based on photographic evidence. While we have names for people shamed for their weight – body shaming, for their skin colour- racism, for their age- age shaming, for being a female- sexism, this category of shaming where one faces criticism for their appearance has no name. With that, it also has zero shame attached to it.
