Renuka Shahane schools Suchitra Krishnamoorthi for comparing sex workers and criminals on twitter
Wednesday, March 27, 2019 IST
Former actress and ex-wife of film-maker Shekhar Kapur, Suchitra Krishnamoorthi and actress Renuka Shahane, known for playing bhabhi to Salman Khan in 'Hum Aapke Hain Kaun' had a feud over twitter. Suchitra has always voiced her concerns and views on society and politics on social media.
Suchitra, is popular for playing Shah Rukh Khan's crush in 'Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa', in a tweet wrote, "Amma always said " Money is not everything.Even criminals and whores have money. What matters is not money but character and integrity." I truly truly understand her words only today. Jeez ive never felt more proud of my middle class roots."
Reacting to Suchitra, actress Renuka condemned the tweet and gave a befitting reply in a series of tweets. In a series of tweets, the actress schooled Suchitra that comparing criminals to sex workers is inappropriate. Renuka wrote, "No disrespect to your Amma @suchitrak but as women let's try & correct the injustice that our traditions have imposed on whores. We castigated whores while letting off their customers who are leading "respectful" lives! Let's not put whores & criminals in one bracket at least."
The actress further said that whores are often pushed into their profession due to human trafficking at ages as young as 7. They are abused, raped, tortured, drugged, given hormonal injections at a very early age & then raped relentlessly throughout their professional lives.
Renuka also pointed out that sex workers aren't respected by any social class in the society but many criminals hold very respectful positions.
Suchitra reacted by agreeing to Renuka's views but also asked her to follow her previous tweets to understand her context. Suchitra was following up on a case of a missing friend.
Renuka also ended the conversation with, “Big hugs @suchitrak Love you too & you know it.”
