Anupam Kher Talks About Why Celebrities Avoid Being Vocal About Their Political Ideologies

Actor Anupam Kher recently spoke about why celebrities might not be vocal about their political ideologies in the present time as compared to the past. He cited past examples of Dev Anand and Vijay Anand during his recent interaction. Anupam pointed out that celebs might end up upsetting people while being vocal about their ideologies. He told Smita Prakash that anyone who goes to cast their vote becomes political. In today's time, it can be easily misconstrued. It can easily get into issues.

He added that there is a certain section of people, Dev Anand Sahab, and Vijay Anand Sahab, they supported a particular ideology. They were vocal and saath me kaam hota rehta tha (work existed side by side). Ab nahi hota (this isn't the same anymore) because everybody is vocal about it on social media. Everybody has groups. So, you can upset people if you are vocal about it. In the same interview, the actor also said that he doesn't want to join a political party. He also touched on boycott trends and said that he is not for boycott trends, not at all but you can't stop somebody from doing what they want to do. But if your product is good, it will find its audience. Anupam Kher was last seen in Shiv Shastri Balboa which also starred Neena Gupta. He has several films lined up in this pipeline. It includes Vivek Agnihotri's The Vaccine War and Kangana Ranaut's Emergency. He is also a part of Kaagaz 2, Anurag Basu's Metro In Dino, IB 71, and The Signature, as his upcoming projects.
