00:00Actor Rajkumar Rao has addressed the ongoing debate around the Hindi-Marathi language issue
00:12in Maharaj and opened up about the silence of Hindi film actors on such sensitive topics.
00:20In an interview, he shared his nuanced view on why not every actor publicly comment on
00:25every issue and why silence doesn't necessarily mean indifference.
00:29When asked whether Bollywood actors avoid speaking on Hindi-Marathi issues and controversial
00:35topics to remain politically correct, Rao responded by saying that people should talk
00:40about issues they feel strongly about, but not out of compulsion.
00:45He explained that while actors are deeply sensitive and affected by social matters, the pressure
00:50to express those emotions publicly, especially on social media, can be misleading.
00:57I think that when you feel strongly about it, you have to say that you have to say about it.
01:00And you have to say about it every time.
01:03And the pressure that you don't put into social media, then you don't feel about it.
01:09I think that this is a little strange thing.
01:11Like I love my country, I love my country immensely, but otherwise if not even country, for anything,
01:19like something happens, something happens, something happens, of course, I feel very
01:23bad.
01:24Especially as actors, we are very very sensitive people.
01:26I feel very bad.
01:28But if I haven't put into social media, then it will tell me that it doesn't feel bad.
01:33So when social media has become a platform that says, put it here, it feels bad.
01:39If you haven't put it, they don't have any understanding, they don't have any feeling.
01:41So, I don't know, it's a very strange phenomenon.
01:42Even for a very basic thing like birthday, I think it's a very strange phenomenon.
01:46That you don't have to feel your feelings.
01:47You don't have to feel your feelings.
01:48Those who don't have social media, and many people don't have, I'm sure, in this country,
01:51in this world, they feel good.
01:53They feel good.
01:54They feel good.
01:55They feel good.
01:56They feel good.
01:57They feel good.
01:58So, the pressure that you have to put it on social media, I don't know, who started
02:03it.
02:04I think it's a very strange phenomenon.
02:06Even for a very basic thing like a birthday, you don't have a social story on our birthday.
02:15So this is a very strange thing.
02:17It's okay, you don't have a message.
02:19But the message is important, right?
02:21Social media is important to show the world.
02:26Some things are also important.
02:28As I said, actors are more sensitive.
02:31Especially personally, I have a lot of things.
02:36Or, you don't have a message in a way.
02:40Or, you don't have to think of a way.
02:42Or, you don't have to think of a way.
02:44You're doing your best.
02:45Or you're doing your best am I doing your best.
02:48I think you're doing your best.
02:50I think you're right.
02:51I think you're right.
02:53Talk about some things a little bit more.
02:55I've always loved it.
02:57I've always loved it.
03:00Welcome back.
03:01I'll see you at the next time.
03:02I'm looking forward to your death.
