Chinmayi Sripaada defends Ranbir Kapoor amid his old beef eating comment over Ramayana casting: ‘A rapist babaji can get parole but what someone eats is a big problem?'
Singer Chinmayi Sripaada has come out in strong defense of Ranbir Kapoor , who has been at the receiving end of online trolling following the release of the first look of Nitesh Tiwari 's Ramayana . The actor is playing the role of Lord Ram in the upcoming epic, and some users have targeted him over an old interview where he admitted to consuming beef. After the teaser showcasing Ranbir and Yash 's official looks from Ramayana went viral on July 3, a section of netizens resurfaced the controversial clip, questioning his suitability for the divine role. One user on Twitter wrote, 'Beef eater will be playing the role of Bhagvan Ram now! 🤦 What's wrong with Bollywood?' The tweet also featured images of Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi from the film set. Chinmayi calls out selective outrage Without naming anyone, Chinmayi took a pointed dig at those outraging over Ranbir's food habits while overlooking more serious issues. She wrote: 'A babaji who uses the name of God can be a rapist and he can keep getting parole to get votes in bhakt India — however what someone eats is a big problem.' When a user tried to counter her by asking, 'How one bad thing can justify another bad thing?', Chinmayi doubled down. 'Nice. So someone playing a ROLE is the same 'bad' as a rapist campaigning for votes amongst you. You deserve to have Ram Rahim as your local MP and visit your house personally.' Her comments have sparked a polarised debate on social media. While many users have lauded Chinmayi for calling out the moral grandstanding, others continue to remain divided on the casting choices and the actor's past remarks. ALIA LEFT SPEECHLESS BY RANBIR'S 'RAMAYANA' LOOK| INTERNET DECLARES IT '100× BETTER THAN ADIPURUSH' First glimpse of Ramayana featuring Ranbir and Yash goes viral Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, Ramayana is one of the most ambitious and awaited Indian films in recent years.

Madhubala wanted to go to US to save her life from..., her visa came late due to....
In the annals of Indian cinema, few names are written in golden ink, and one of them is Madhubala. The late actress left an undeniable mark on the audience, which is still remembered by fans with love and awe. However, as much as her career was glorified, her personal life faced massive ups and downs. In the late 1950s, Madhubala was going through a major health crisis known as a ventricular septal defect—a hole in the heart. With each passing day, her health deteriorated, and her doctors advised her to seek treatment overseas. When Madhubala Wanted to Go to the US to Save Her Life The United States had the best cardiac facilities at the time, offering the actress the mere chance of survival. She desperately wanted to be saved and hence applied for a US visa. With this news coming out, it quickly garnered headlines. The press followed every detail closely, speculating whether she would leave the country for good or return after her treatment. Fans were devastated by the thought of losing her, even if only for a while. The Waits and Delays in Madhubala's Visa Approval While Madhubala's visa was justified medically, and the rest of the process was smooth, reports suggest that her visa faced delays in getting clearances as officials were hesitant to approve travel for someone of her stature, fearing public outrage if anything happened to her. After a lot of waiting, Madhubala received her visa and went to London and later to the US in 1960. However, it was very late by then. After examining Madhubala's condition, doctors declared her illness inoperable. Nine years later, Madhubala passed away on February 23, 1969, at the age of 36.
