Madhuri Dixit's Maa Behen has received praise for its message on consent, but the ₹370 biryani row has sparked outrage. Actors Geetanjali Kulkarni and Arunoday Singh share their thoughts on the issue.
Geetanjali Kulkarni believes education about consent should start at an early age within families, while Arunoday Singh thinks society needs to take a hard look at itself and implement laws and consequences for such behavior.
Arunoday Singh described the situation as 'like a wild west suddenly,' and expressed his concern that 'everything is permitted.'
The controversy revolves around web developer Himanshu Jangra, who expected sexual intimacy from a woman in return for ₹370 biryani he bought for her. He was fired from his job, and comedian Pranit More was slammed for not reprimanding him and for amplifying the clip on social media.
