Bollywood actor Preity Zinta took to Twitter, to express her frustration with the growing negativity and cynicism on social media. The actor, known for her candid nature, pointed out how people have become quick to pass judgment on celebrities based on their online interactions.
Preity Zinta frustrated with social media cynicism: “If you appreciate your PM, then you are a Bhakt”
Labeling people unfairly
Preity highlighted the trend of labelling individuals based on their opinions. She remarked, “What’s happening to people on social media? Everyone has become so cynical. If one talks about their first chat with an AI Bot then people presume it’s a paid promotion, if you appreciate ur PM then you are a bhakt (follower) & god forbid, if you are a proud Hindu or Indian then ur an Andh Bhakt (blind follower).”
Appealing for open-mindedness
Urging people to be more accepting, Preity requested that people view others for who they truly are instead of imposing their own expectations. “Take people for who they are & not who we think they should be! Maybe we all need to take a chill pill and just be happy to communicate with each other,” she advised.
Addressing trolls in advance
Anticipating possible trolling, Preity humorously addressed the common question about her marriage to Gene Goodenough. She wrote, “Now don’t ask me why I married Gene? I married him cuz I love him (heart emoji). Kyuki sarhad par ek aisa shaks hai, jo mere liye aapni jaan de sakta hai (Because there is one person across the border who can give his life for me). If you know you know.”
On engaging with trolls
When a user asked if responding to trolls only fuels their negativity, Preity explained that her generation did not grow up with technology, making AI interactions intriguing to her. “I think you guys forget that we did not grow up with technology so it does feel a bit alien & there is a lot of curiosity regarding AI,” she replied.
Longing for meaningful conversations
The actor also reminisced about the earlier days of social media, where discussions were more engaging and meaningful. “On the flip side, I prefer real interaction & I hardly get time to go online as I’m busy with my little ones. Earlier we used to have amazing Pzchats. We would choose a topic and everyone discussed that topic. Hopefully, I will get back to those chats when I have more time,” she added.
