Women Empowerment - Really ??
Internet trolling seems amusing for some time, but it’s an issue of great concern as it can greatly affect everyone’s life from a celebrity to that of a common man. The most recent case to name or to give an example is of: Anushka Sharma, the Indian actress who is blamed after every defeat of Indian team and sense less jokes are passed over her with every Indian victory that comes around.
Man of the moment, Virat Kohli took a dig at these trolls expressing his sadness towards such people by mentioning them as shameless, after the world class chase against Aussies through a tweet on twitter.
Whether Indian team performs or not to the fullest of its potential, it’s always her who is taking the blame for all the wrong things happening around, such is the extent to which internet trolling can affect the life of an individual. The fancy life of celebrities from the outside looks to be filled with glamour and praises that comes from different parts of the world; celebrities are tend to be seen as people who’re often highly social-able and always under media’s eyes.
After all they lead a life in the public eye – where every move on their part results in either praises or backlash from the fans. The life of an celebrity therefore is not easy to live with and the only question that comes to my mind is that is that of; "Do celebrities have a right to privacy, can they lead a normal life as all of us, why is it so that all of us are so interested in their personal issues keeping aside our own, which we can't even manage sometimes?”
We live in a land where every person is having freedom and speech and expressions, thanks to the constitution that has been drafted by Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar which clearly mentions that each individual of this country is free to express their feelings about something. But these days some of them are talking this in the wrong sense and creating a mess.
Right from the internet trolls to JNU case, freedom of speech is exploited to the core by headless creature. We cannot abuse anyone under the Public Order Act 1986, section 4 but people are allowed to pass derogatory remarks on celebrities in reviews on social networking sites like YouTube, Facebook and Twitter, showing their rage for no apparent reason, be simply disrespectful and awfully insensitive.
As i come to the end of this post the questions that we have to ask ourselves is that:
1) Do you stand with the right to privacy and right to respect of an individual (celebrity)?
2) Should a celebrity, if victim of internet trolling, sit silent or take a stance and revert to the internet troll in a fitting manner?
3) Is it fair to make the assessments that to achieve women’s empowerment in the real world, we first need to change the way women are being treated on social media platforms?
