Jugal Hansraj criticizes personal attacks on actors
Jugal Hansraj has spoken out in defense of Ibrahim Ali Khan and Khushi Kapoor, following negative reactions to their film "Nadaaniyan." The film has received criticism on social media, with users mocking the acting skills of the newcomers. In an interview, Hansraj, who plays Ibrahim's father in the film, criticized the personal attacks directed at the actors. He emphasized that criticism should be constructive and helpful, rather than hurtful. He noted that when he started acting in the 1980s, there was no social media, which allowed new actors time to grow without intense scrutiny. Hansraj mentioned that today’s young actors, like Ibrahim and Khushi, face unfair pressure. He urged people to provide thoughtful feedback instead of making personal remarks about appearances. He believes that helpful feedback aids actors in their development. "I Nadaaniyan," Ibrahim Ali Khan makes his acting debut, and the film features a mix of positive and negative reviews. The dialogues have been particularly criticized. The movie is directed by Shauna Gautam and produced under Karan Johar’s banner. It tells the story of a wealthy woman, Pia, who asks a newcomer named Arjun to pretend to be her boyfriend after a problem arises with her friends. The film is available to stream on Netflix.
