TIL Desk Bollywood/ Actress Kriti Kharbanda, whose latest movie is ‘Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana’, believes there is nothing wrong in objectifying a woman’s beauty, as long as it is done aesthetically.
Kriti earned popularity in the south Indian film industry. Earlier, actress Taapsee Paannu had mentioned a filmmaker’s obsession with showing a woman’s mid-riff, and Kriti too cited how he does it in an “aesthetic manner”.
At a time when body shaming has become rampant, Kriti said it stems from people’s narrow-minded perspective towards women. Often, women have been projected as eye candy and their mid-riffs are objectified. Asked about it, Kriti said, “Well, let’s make it clear, women are sexier than men. They are a prettier gender than their male counterparts.
“And then, if a woman is comfortable showing her mid-riff on-screen, what is the other’s problem? Why does she face body shaming? Does a man face the same while going shirtless? “I think objectifying women is not wrong if only her beauty is captured in an aesthetic manner.”
