The gruesome rape and murder in Kolkata has sent shockwaves across the country. The incident has left everyone disturbed and angered and there is a demand for the strictest punishment for the culprit from all quarters of the society. This also includes people from the entertainment industry. We got talking to them to know their views on the same.
Tanushree Dutta, Victor Banerjee, Moon Moon Sen and others speak on the gruesome Kolkata rape and murder: “If this is how India will think tomorrow, then, sadly, this nation is doomed”
Tanushree Dutta: It is awful to see such things are still happening in our country. I thought the Nirbhaya case would be the last after all of the culprits hanged. Just simply don’t have words to react to this. It’s horrible and shows very poorly on our country. I feel very sad for her parents, no one deserves to die like this.”
Victor Banerjee: The Bhadralok image that Bengal sustained for centuries has been tarnished and besmirched like never before by the ignominious apathy of scurrilous leaders, who have lost what little respect they had left. We hang our heads in shame. If this is how India will think tomorrow, then, sadly, this nation is doomed.
Moon Moon Sen: You will get me into trouble, Subhash! But I must say, any rapist /murderer should be punished severely. Since time immemorial women have been abused and will be. We have not found a solution yet.
Mita Vashisth: Bharat Maata is the feminine gender. Our country has fallen into the grip of toxic masculinity… at all levels… whether it is in the context of our wonderful sports women, or our life savers like our lady doctors, or the in the context of our women whose abuse is a daily given in the news. When a system of a country is focused only on money and power over everything else, at the cost of the performing and other arts, at the cost of free and fair education… we know toxic masculinity is present, the feminine is stifled and it’s the women who are brutalized… eventually, it spells doom for all of society.
Adivi Sesh: This is catastrophic for us as a society, sir. Truly feel like a gross injustice has been perpetrated against half the population. It’s been a lot of introspection and eye opening to know every woman I have ever known has faced varying degrees of physical harassment or assault. The incident in Kolkata is representative of a larger decay in us as human beings. Outraged. Hurt and broken.
