A severe flood has hit Punjab and Himachal Pradesh, leaving many people dead and thousands displaced from their homes. Social media has been flooded with prayers for victims, but netizens also noticed something unusual in celebrity responses.
They pointed out that celebrities showed concern for Punjab. From SRK to Alia Bhatt, many expressed solidarity. But almost everyone remained silent about Himachal, as if the state did not belong to India.
Residents of Himachal and online users expressed anger. They highlighted that many film shoots take place in Himachal, yet when disaster struck, no one spoke up for the people. The double standards of the North Indian entertainment industry became clear.
Even more surprising was the silence of Mandi MP Kangana Ranaut. Known for her outspoken nature, she chose not to respond to the crisis that directly affected her own state.
Another section of social media argued that Bollywood celebrities should not be expected to take responsibility in such matters. They said stars are hypocrites, but accountability lies with the government, not the film industry.
