Aukat Mein Raho: Shahid Insulted His Own Audience?

Shahid Kapoor has often faced backlash for his comments during film promotions. A similar situation had earlier surfaced around Padmaavat, when some fans felt his PR strategy projected Deepika and Ranveer negatively. That episode had already sparked debate about his public statements.

Now, with O Romeo receiving criticism, Shahid Kapoor appears to be under scrutiny again. The film has not met audience expectations despite Vishal Bhardwaj’s efforts to present him in a mass appealing role. Viewers have pointed out flaws in the film’s execution.

During a recent interview, Shahid responded to criticism with a remark that drew attention. He stated, “aap ki aukat honi chahiye bolne ke liye,” referring to those criticising the film. The comment has been widely discussed across social media platforms.

Many internet users felt the statement sounded dismissive towards paying audiences. Critics argue that viewers who spend money on tickets have every right to share opinions. The reaction online suggests that some perceived his tone as arrogant.

The controversy has reopened conversations about how actors handle public feedback. Cinema allows audiences to engage and express views freely. Whether this episode affects ORomeo’s box office journey remains to be seen.
