Full update of Bigg Boss 19’s Kunickaa Sadanand’s controversial statements and backlash on rape in Bollywood.
Headlines in Bigg Boss 19
Bigg Boss 19’s wild card contestant Kunickaa Sadanand recently said such things about Bollywood while staying in the house, which created a ruckus on social media.
She believes that women are not forced in the Hindi film industry because “we already get hints from the heroines.”
Shocking words in the interview
In an old interview with Siddharth Kannan, Kunickaa says, “I believe that rape does not happen, because girls themselves give hints.”
She also said that when an actress fixes the director’s collar or praises his perfume, it becomes an opportunity.
After hearing her words, she started getting trolled on every social account.
Jaan Kumar Sanu gave a strong reply
Kunickaa’s ex-boyfriend Kumar Sanu’s son Jaan Kumar Sanu also broke his silence.
She tweeted, “She was managing her life on her own – with married men and whoever she could get her hands on.”
Her scathing tone further fuelled the controversy as Kunickaa herself had spent six years in a live-in relationship with Kumar Sanu.
Casting couch revelation
Even after the video clip was cut, Kunickaa revealed that she once felt unsafe in the makeup room.
An assistant director at Mehboob Studio called her out, then the producer came in and tried to molest her.
But Kunickaa showed courage and refused. She clearly said, “I have never made any unnecessary compromise.”
Personal stand and criticism
After these statements, Kunickaa is being trolled both inside and outside the house.
Some people called her views outdated and sad, while some saluted her bravery for raising a burning issue like the casting couch.
What is the message?
This entire controversy once again reflects that the safety of women in the industry, their experience and consent should be discussed seriously.
No matter how educated or experienced they are, actresses can also be victims of discrimination and superstition.
It is our responsibility not to consider this issue trivial.
The things Kunickaa Sadanand said on her behalf, even if they were said in jest, are also bringing out the ground reality of the industry.
One thing that became clear from this debate is that flirting and exploitation are different things, and we all need to understand this.
