Shahid
Kapoor's
latest
release
'Kabir
Singh'
is
smashing
all
records
at
the
box
office.
In
just
four
days,
the
film
has
minted
Rs.
88.37
crore
and
is
now
racing
towards
the
100
crore
mark.
Kabir
Singh
is
the
Hindi
remake
of
Vijay
Deverakonda's
Telugu
blockbuster
'Arjun
Reddy'
and
is
helmed
by
Sandeep
Reddy
Vanga.
While
the
film
is
unstoppable
at
the
box
office,
it
is
also
in
the
news
for
its
mixed
reviews.
Shahid's
performance
has
been
applauded
but,
many
have
criticized
the
film
for
the
'misogyny'
and
alleged
that
the
film
depicts
glorification
of
toxic
masculinity.
Meanwhile,
reports
suggest
that
asked
the
cast
and
crew
of
the
film
to
stay
out
of
the
media
glare.
A
Deccan
Chronicle
report
quoted
a
source
as
saying,
"It's
true.
No
one
is
going
to
sit
down
and
explain
why
Kabir
Singh
is
what
he
is.
There
is
really
no
explanation.
And
the
more
one
tries
to
explain
the
more
difficult
it
gets
to
fob
off
the
growing
volley
of
attacks,
criticism
and
questioning.
So
it's
best
to
just
keep
quiet."
And
now,
a
report
in
Times
Now
states
that
a
Mumbai-based
doctor
has
filed
complaint
against
the
makers
of
the
film
for
putting
doctors
in
a
bad
light.
In
Kabir
Singh,
Shahid's
character
is
seen
as
a
heartbroken
doctor
who
hits
the
bottle
and
also
consumes
drugs
to
numb
his
pain.
He
also
suffers
from
rage
issues.
Seeing
that
this
could
bring
all
doctors
into
a
bad
light,
the
doctor
has
filed
a
complaint
with
the
Mumbai
police
and
has
also
written
a
letter
to
the
central
Health
Minister,
Information
and
Broadcasting
Ministry,
State
Health
Ministry,
and
the
Censor
Board
of
Film
Certification
to
stop
the
screening
of
the
film.
The
Mumbai-based
doctor
has
alleged
that
the
movie
has
distorted
the
image
of
a
doctor
and
has
accused
the
makers
of
showing
doctors
in
a
negative
manner.
Before
the
film's
release
when
Shahid
was
asked
about
the
Telugu
version
to
been
under
the
scanner
for
glorification
of
toxic
masculinity,
the
actor
had
said,
"We
are
very
hypocritical
about
how
we
tend
to
look
at
cinema
made
in
India.
"We
then
watch
things
made
internationally
and
praise
them
for
the
fact
that
they
are
so
honest,
straight
and
not
trying
to
be
politically
correct
all
the
time.
Cinema
is
meant
to
showcase
different
people.
It's
not
about
wonderful,
perfect
people.
I
think
we
all
are
imperfect
in
our
own
ways.We
all
have
grey
areas
within
ourselves,
we
go
through
good
and
bad
phases,"
