The controversy over Kriti Sanon’s Raksha Bandhan advertisement has triggered a wider debate online. While the actor defended her outfit and said culture and traditions should not be judged by a woman’s clothing, actor Abhijeet Dipke weighed in with a sharp comment. He said that while India debates clothes and such controversies, China is moving ahead by building robots. Dipke’s remark shifted the discussion towards India’s focus on innovation and technological progress. The ad had drawn criticism over Sanon’s outfit and a scene showing her tying a rakhi to a pet dog, while others defended the campaign’s modern interpretation of tradition. (PC: NDTV)
