Swastika Mukherjee made a bold statement on her social media on Thursday, expressing her frustration regarding film premieres and the overwhelming crowds surrounding her. She announced that she would no longer attend any film premieres, including her own, citing the chaos and discomfort that come with them.
In her post, Swastika shared her reasons for this decision. She mentioned that people often attend film screenings not for the movie itself, but to see the stars and capture the moment on their phones. She also pointed out how the crew members who work tirelessly on a film are often excluded from such events, which she believes is unfair. Swastika recalled a time when everyone involved in the making of a film, including the cast and crew, was invited to screenings, and she emphasized that this was more meaningful than simply attending for the glamour.
Another issue she raised was the invasion of privacy at such events. With the rise of social media influencers, vloggers, and paparazzi, Swastika expressed discomfort with being constantly photographed and filmed without any boundaries. She even recounted an incident where she was pushed and shoved by photographers trying to capture her image, which led to her decision to avoid such situations in the future.
