To this Rao responded, “Kiran Ma’am, @deepikapadukone performance is amazing in any role. My reaction is to the film’s message conveyed to society by a person followed by millions. As police officer, I have seen how youth just blindly follow them, youngsters feel it’s ok to indulge and homes fall, crimes rise.”

Exactly ! I resonate with your views. As a career counselor we interact with thousands of students who I feel simply imbibe the values depicted by celebrities in movies or these series.Their maturity levels are not that developed to think critically They just follow them.
