‘बॉडी पार्ट्स जूम करना प्राइवेसी का उल्लंघन’, जाह्नवी ने जताई नाराजगी, की थी पैप्स से बात – janhvi kapoor slams paparazzi zooming body parts consensual tmovg
Actress Janhvi Kapoor has reacted to the paparazzi’s way of zooming photos of her body. She stressed that no matter what her dress was, zooming in on her body parts without her consent was a violation of decorum.
In an interview given to Raj Shamani, she gave the example of the song ‘Bheegi Saree’ and explained how some things are ‘sensual done willingly’, while some things are ‘objectification.’
Janhvi Kapoor told that some time ago she herself had met the paparazzi alone so that she could explain to them how much their work sometimes goes in the wrong direction. Janhvi told him, ‘The way you photograph women is not only bad for us, but it also tarnishes your own image.’ Showing a mirror to the photographers, he asked whether they can respect themselves by using a woman’s body as an object without her consent just for a few bucks or more views? According to Janhvi, the paps listened to her seriously and also realized their mistake.
Example of song ‘Bheegi Saree’
To further clarify her point, Janhvi gave the example of her song ‘Bheegi Saree’. He said that he had deliberately adopted a sensual avatar in that song, because it was his choice and the demand of the film.
He told, ‘I did that work there of my own free will. But when I go out in my personal life, I am free to wear clothes of my choice. This does not mean at all that anyone should install a camera and zoom my body parts without my knowledge or make those videos viral by adding slow-motion and strange music. Sexualizing someone without their consent is absolutely wrong.
I have the right to say no
Janhvi expressed her opinion not only on the paparazzi walking on the road but also on the way of working on film sets. He said that the right to ‘consent’ should be everywhere. According to Janhvi, ‘Even on the set of a film, if the camera is placed at an angle with which I am not comfortable, then I have every right to say ‘no’. I should not be considered ‘unprofessional’ for saying this. He stressed that at every step it is necessary to ask what the artist has given his consent to and where his privacy is being violated.
It was clearly visible from Jhanvi’s words during the interview that she is deeply troubled by this kind of behaviour. She believes that wearing a particular dress or looking glamorous does not give anyone the right to treat your body as a ‘product’ without your consent.
