Actor Shivaji, who has been steadily signing interesting roles of late, found himself in the middle of a controversy following remarks he made at the pre-release event of his upcoming film Dhandoraa.
Speaking at the event, Shivaji shared his views on the way heroines dress. The Court actor said that traditional attire like sarees enhances a woman’s beauty and dignity. While he mentioned that wearing short dresses is not wrong, he added that such choices are often judged silently by people. According to him, dressing “appropriately” brings a ‘natural’ sense of grace and appeal.
The comments quickly went viral on social media and drew criticism from a section of netizens, including a few notable people. Many felt that the actor had no place commenting on how actresses should dress, calling his remarks intrusive and outdated. The debate continues online, and it remains to be seen how the issue will play out.
