WTF Wednesday: Actress Samyuktha Hegde and politico Kavitha Reddy's public spat over a sports bra is the last thing we needed

Of late, politics and showbiz has come together like never before. We have seen how the unfortunate demise of Sushant Singh Rajput has become a political slug-fest. Ministers from different parties have gained a lot of mileage by appearing on TV debates, screaming their opinions. This week, in a rather distasteful incident, Congress politician Kavitha Reddy got into a heated argument with actress Samyuktha Hegde in a park in Bengaluru. It seems she was working out with a group of friends. Reddy, along with a few men, reportedly heckled them and a huge fracas transpired. Samyukhtha Hegde took to social media to condemn what happened. Later, Kavitha Reddy also issued an apology, saying that she is against moral policing.

It is kind of upsetting to see how politicians seem to find soft targets in celebs. Of late, there have been some heated debates between politicians and actors. Though they were absolutely unnecessary, one might argue that the issues were still kind of serious. However, this argument over wearing a sports bra in public was beyond inane. Just consider these things: India is almost leading in the number of coronavirus cases in the world. The GDP of the country has hit a new low. Lakhs have been rendered unemployed and students are also fighting the system. And you're worried about someone's choice of attire worn of their own volition.

It is annoying to see a politician creating a fuss over a modern garment. It is high time the scrutiny over what women wear comes to an end because it's downright disgusting, no two ways about it. Moreover, it seems to have become a trend for politicians to comment on matters involving celeb at all times. It not only adds fuel to the fire (in case of existing matters), but, invariably, also fuels more negativity. People who are elected by the junta really need to behave in a more responsible manner.
