Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga was severely criticized for his Shahid Kapoor starrer Kabir Singh as the movie reeked of toxic masculinity and when the director recently wrote a post demanding justice for Hyderabad rape victim, a vet, who was gang-raped and murdered, the netizens called him a hypocrite.
Sandeep wrote, “FEAR is the only factor which can change things radically in a society and FEAR should be the new rule. Brutal sentence will set an example. Now every girl in the country needs a firm guarantee.I request @warangalpolice to come into action.#RIPPriyankaReddy.”
As he wrote this post, Twitterati called him out on his hypocrisy. Here's what they had to say:
Make movies like Arjun Reddy and Kabir Singh, glorify toxic masculinity and tweet about fear. Not nice.
Got a chance to see some scenes in the movie. Not nice.

😂😂 Ladies and Gentlemen i present to you the great and fabled hypocrisy of our society in action. Keep making feudal and patriarchal movies like Arjun Reddy and also keep preaching along with Vijay devarakonda about rule of law and values.

At first police must arrest you for making such movie which encourage boys to disrespect girls.

If only Arjun Reddy had that fear factor, or at least respect. Life of Preethi and other girls would have been much better.

Again, you're completely missing the point, but what else can we expect from the director of Kabir Singh? Sanctioning is not enough. As long as Indian society does not question a deeply phallocrat education and environment where anything is allowed for men, nothing will change.

About time filmmakers start practicing what they preach.
