Zareen Khan SLAMS Troll Saying ‘Shaadi Kar Lo, Buddhi Ho Rahi Ho': ‘Fir Se Jawan…'
After a troll told her to 'marry because she's getting old,' Zareen Khan posted a video shutting down the troll, and questioned society's obsession with marriage.
Actress Zareen Khan recently shared a video on Instagram, responding to an ageist troll who left a comment on her post saying, 'Shaadi kar lo, buddhi ho rahi ho (Get married, you're getting old).' The actress had a savage and witty reply! She questioned the bizarre logic behind marriage being presented as the ultimate solution to every problem in life. Mocking the troll, Zareen Khan sarcastically questioned whether getting married would somehow make her younger. She then criticized society's obsession with marriage. Zareen pointed out how, especially for women, independence is often seen as a threat, and the go-to solution from families is to get the girl married.
Zareen Khan shared a video in which she said, 'Lately maine comments read kiye apne posts pe. Aur ek comment hai jo bohot zyada stand out kiya- 'Shaadi kar lo buddhi ho rahi ho.' Toh kya shaadi karne ke baad main fir se jawan ho jaungi? (Lately I've been reading the comments on my posts, and there was one that really stood out — 'Get married, you're getting old.' So if I get married, will I become young again?) What does this even mean? (laughs)." She further added, 'I don't know if this mindset exists only in our country or if it's a universal problem, but somehow marriage seems to be the ultimate solution for everything."
She then said that if someone is not working of doing anything productive in life, the family's go-to solution is: 'Get them married.' 'I mean, how is that a solution? A person who can't even take responsibility for their own life — you want to add another person to that mess? Then they'll end up ruining not only their own life but the other person's too. So I don't think this would work. And if a boy or girl is becoming too independent, or 'out of control' as they say in our society, the parents' biggest fear is: 'She's slipping out of our hands.' And again, the fix is: 'Get her married'," said Zareen.
She then asked whether marriage is some kind of magic. 'Is marriage some kind of magic? Like once you're married, everything will just fall into place? Because from what I see these days, most marriages don't even last beyond 2–3 months. So no, I definitely don't think marriage is the solution to every problem," she concluded.
Back in 2010, Zareen Khan, who started her career as a makeup artist, starred in 'Veer' with Salman Khan. Though it started off well, constant comparisons with Katrina Kaif became a downer in her career. She was last seen in the 2021 movie Hum Bhi Akele Tum Bhi Akele.

Backlash Erupts Over Sydney Sweeney's American Eagle Photoshoot Amid Political Controversy and Comparisons to 2009 Campaign
The debate surrounding American Eagle Outfitters' "Great Jeans" campaign featuring Sydney Sweeney does not appear to be slowing down. Over the course of more than 10 days, advertisements with "The White Lotus" actress are generating news coverage and social media rebukes. U.S. President Donald Trump has fueled the eugenics controversy during the weekend and David Lipman, a veteran advertising creative director on Monday, suggested to suggest that this American Eagle campaign recreated the look he created in 2009 when he collaborated by collaborating with Georgia May Jagger for Hudson Jeans. When a reporter revealed the voter registration status of Sydney Sweeney, Trump commented on Truth Social and called her the most talked about and viral ad campaign on the market. Trump acknowledged the great jeans genes ad and said it was flying off the shelves and encouraged Sydney to keep up her efforts. A media inquiry for the U.S. Office of Government Ethics seeking to know if Trump endorsement was in line the rules regarding "Endorsing Organizations, Products or Persons" was not acknowledged on Monday. American Eagle's stock surge 23.5 percent to close at $13.28. This is a significant increase compared to Friday which saw it drop by just a fraction of 1. At 27years old, Sweeney's Instagram following has risen to 25 million by Friday night, to 25.2 million. Additionally the popularity of her American Eagle campaign video has grown to 1.3 million views and attracted between 36,600 to 57,600 responses an increase of 57,600 from 5,483 posts earlier during the same time. Based on Susan Scafidi, founder and director of the Fashion Law Institute at Fordham University If Sydney B. Sweeney registered as an Republican within Florida was the exact person that is being discussed as a possible candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, then party operatives could be forming narratives that have white supremacist themes.
