The Story in Brief
Kannada actor Risheekaa Singh has criticised the trailer of Yash's upcoming film Toxic, accusing it of disrespecting women. In an Instagram video, she called out Yash's nude scene and asked why Kiara Advani was brought from Bollywood to be shown in a demeaning way. She said women in the film are not portrayed beautifully or complimentarily, and warned Yash to show respect or be kicked out of Karnataka.
Yash's fans hit back, saying the director is a woman and that Risheekaa Singh did not criticise the film Animal for similar content. Toxic, directed by Geetu Mohandas, is a gangster drama featuring Yash in a dual role alongside Kiara Advani, Huma Qureshi and others. It is set for release on August 26.
The Indian Opinion
The debate over Toxic's trailer has split into two lazy camps. One side defends the film by pointing out a female director, as if that shields every frame from criticism. The other side attacks Risheekaa Singh for not speaking up during Animal, as if two wrongs make a right. Neither engages with the actual question: does the trailer reduce women to objects? The film releases on August 26. Watch it before judging.
