Reet Padda Deletes Instagram After ‘Dhurandhar 2’ Row

Aneet Padda, who recently gained attention for her work in “Saiyaara,” has found herself indirectly in the spotlight after her sister Reet Padda became the center of an online controversy.

Reet Padda faced heavy backlash after criticizing the film “Dhurandhar: The Revenge,” starring Ranveer Singh, and labeling it a “propaganda” film.

Social Media Backlash Intensifies

Reet’s comments quickly went viral across social media platforms. Her statements did not sit well with a section of the audience, particularly fans of the film.

As criticism mounted, she initially made her Instagram account private. Soon after, her account appeared to be deleted entirely. Users searching for her profile now encounter a message indicating that the page is no longer available.

Her LinkedIn profile has also reportedly been removed.

She also compared it with other films, suggesting that some movies exaggerate facts to shape a particular narrative. Her remarks sparked a wider debate online, dividing opinions among users.

Debate Around Cinema and Narratives

The controversy has once again highlighted how sensitive topics in films often trigger strong reactions.
