”With success comes the responsibilty to speak in public”, says an ‘X’ user after a video clip of television actress Rupali Ganguly looking down upon a ‘gynac’ has gone viral on the social media.
Rupali Ganguly has become a household name for her role of Anupamaa on Star Plus’ show Anupamaa, earning widespread acclaim for her acting prowess.
What sparked this controversy was Rupali’s s on women and a gynacoelgist , in a recent interview with CNBC. When asked about how does she responds to people trolling her and her character Anupamaa, the actress can be seen laughing as she says, ”Aree bahut troll karte hai and sadly it is the women only who troll. ‘Auraton ko itna vella time kaha se hai?’ Koi ek doctor hai, ‘Bloody some gynac,’ wo gaali deti rehti hai. Kyun tere pas patient nahi hai bhai? Nahi hai toh bol bhejti hoon main tere pas, Kaam mein busy hoja, kahan dimag laga rahi hai?” (They troll a lot, and sadly, it’s only women who troll. ‘Where do women have so much free time?’ There’s one doctor, ‘Bloody some gynaecologist,’ she keeps cursing. Why, don’t you have patients? If you don’t, then tell me, I’ll send some your way. Get busy with work, why are you wasting your brain?)
As soon as the video clip of the actress went viral on X , social media users bashed the actress for this statement. While few called her out for the kind of ‘language’ she used in the video, others criticized her for demeaning and looking down upon a ‘doctor.’ A few tweets of disappointed X users read as follows. One user wrote, ”Don’t think celebrities need to behave like this. People are criticizing a character. Why take it personally.” Another user wrote, ”She just wants everyone to praise her character while her character takes insults from Shahs & serve them tea” One user recalled Rupali’s stint in Bigg Boss and wrote, ”Chhapri since bb times” While another user wrote, ”With success comes the responsibility to speak in public, sorry to say but her language shows her class.”
