EnterTheVoid Posted April 22, 2021 Posted April 22, 2021 And than flaunting it on social media. Is there anything more tone deaf and out of touch? Not telling them not to holiday. But FFS, respect the sombre mood the nation is currently in. beetle, Khota, Laaloo and 1 other 4

Clarke Posted April 22, 2021 Posted April 22, 2021 We'll they're showbiz celebs, not exactly creme de la creme of society at least in my opinion. Secondly, if they follow covid guidelines they're actually doing better than most of the masses. Mariyam 1
Mariyam Posted April 22, 2021 Posted April 22, 2021 ^ Shobha De said something similar. Another way to look at it: Their followers and those who visit their IG pages do not see this as a rubbing it in. A general look at the comments would show you that people by and large are appreciative/ have positive things to say. Someone wants to live their life and is willing to travel keeping all travel restrictions in mind, so whats the issue? Where is the insensitivity? Clarke and coffee_rules 2
Clarke Posted April 22, 2021 Posted April 22, 2021 ^^ I also think being in the limelight is part of their profession. The top celebs are often based on looks etc and keeping the eyeballs hooked is part of the profession. Mariyam 1

Cricketics Posted April 22, 2021 Posted April 22, 2021 We have no right to comment when we have invited the world to come and play in IPL in the heart of the country where Covid cases have been rising and us fans have been enjoying every bit of the action which cricket has provided too. This should be right up there being extremely wrong too if we are trying to judge someone in these times. Clarke, BacktoCricaddict, WC2011INDIA and 5 others 8
EnterTheVoid Posted April 22, 2021 Author Posted April 22, 2021 The can holiday all they want. The can take all the photos they want. That said, reading the mood of the room goes a long way. beetle 1
EnterTheVoid Posted April 22, 2021 Author Posted April 22, 2021 (edited) Absolutely traumatic visuals. Honestly, can't watch. Are they so insensitive to people's suffering that they can post their stupid holiday pictures amidst all the carnage? The lengths people will stoop to for likes and followers. Just doesn't sit well with me. Edited April 22, 2021 by EnterTheVoid
ash Posted April 22, 2021 Posted April 22, 2021 There are lots of things to get angry about, especially super spreader events like political rallies. This is just misplaced anger, as long as they are following covid rules, they are free to do anything. Indwin 1

coffee_rules Posted April 22, 2021 Posted April 22, 2021 (edited) Not a celebrity, but guilty as charged. Had to take the spring vacation that was bought last year. Didn’t make it a big thing for friends and family, didn’t post photos to share etc., good for economy, I guess. Had been to Gayle and Usain country. On OP, they do it for rozi roti. They are hardly in demand for say 5-10 years and after their shelf life, they have to life off their fame and money earned. Unlike us, they can’t work until we have retirement savings.

IPL 2021 was also planned. India is in no flyzone list, of players home countries who are playing in 2021 version. But when they flew to India, they didn’t knew that they were flying into a place wich will turn toxic zone in matter of days. IPL is one thing, that keeps our mind off temporarily from all bad things happening around us in India. I say continue with IPL Edited April 22, 2021 by mishra

All I am saying, before we judge anyone in these times we must raealize these are weird times. It is better not to judge anyone. We have all made some mistakes or shown some sort lf complacency already since pandemic started regardless of whereever we live. mishra 1

Its just not even that they have ppl who rely on them to. Celebs have big staff whom they have to pay
EnterTheVoid Posted April 22, 2021 Author Posted April 22, 2021 It's not so much that they're going on holiday. It's the "look at me, LOOK AT ME" attention seeking behaviour that is disturbing. The visuals coming out of India are horrific, to say the least. Make shift crematoriums are popping up. And even they can't keep pace with the number of decreased that need to be cremated. You click on COVID related news. And a banner pops up about some stupid celebrity going on holiday somewhere. How insensitive and tone deaf do you have to be? Can't you hold off from posting your fake photoshopped Instagram photos for a week or two? coffee_rules and Khota 1 1
