Shahid trolled for saying ‘marriage is about women fixing men’

Bollywood star Shahid Kapoor is facing massive trolling on social media for sharing his idea of marriage during a recent interview with a leading entertainment portal.

During the interview, the actor said, "I finally have figured this out that this entire marriage thing is just about one thing, you know: It's that the guy was a mess and the woman came in to fix him. So, the rest of this life is going to be a journey of being fixed and becoming a decent person. That pretty much is what life is about.”


His comment outraged many on social media with some even comparing him to his character in the 2019 blockbuster Kabir Singh.

One Reddit user wrote, "I get that you played Kabir Singh but you don't have to continue behaving like that bro."

Another one added, "This is what women are for? To fix men? Manchild."

A third comment read, "It's never a woman's job to fix a man. Marriage is equal responsibility on both husband and wife."

Another user asked, "Just to be a decent person?" Schooling Shahid, another user commented, "No Shahid, this is NOT what marriage should be. This is probably a big reason why more and more women are choosing to remain single. It's 2023, men being incompetent is no longer cool or excusable."

Meanwhile, on the work front, Shahid Kapoor is gearing up for the digital premiere of his film Bloody Daddy on JioCinema.

'Akka' review: Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte’s battle exposes an uncomfortable truth about power

Highlights

  • Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte lead Netflix's five-episode crime drama set in a fictional south Indian region ruled by an 800-year-old sisterhood.
  • The series explores whether women in positions of absolute power can avoid reproducing the oppressive systems traditionally associated with patriarchy.
  • Strong performances, sharp dialogue and stylised storytelling make Akka engaging, although its political ideas are not always fully explored.

What happens when women take control of a world traditionally dominated by men? Does changing the gender of those in power automatically create a fairer society? Netflix's Akka, led by Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte, explores these uncomfortable questions through a violent crime saga built around an 800-year-old sisterhood.

Set in the fictional south Indian region of Perunuru, the five-episode series follows a powerful matriarchal community that controls the criminal underworld and the lucrative gold and illicit liquor trades. While its premise offers an interesting reversal of conventional crime dramas, the story gradually reveals that replacing male rulers with women does not necessarily dismantle the systems of oppression they inherit.
