Bollywood’s Soap Opera Specials


PR creates wars? Aparshakti Khurana vs. Stree Squad

PR

When Aparshakti Khurana weighed in on the Stree 2 credit kerfuffle, it was like tuning into a live soap opera. He didn’t exactly throw a tantrum; instead, he diplomatically dubbed it “slightly unpleasant,” reminiscent of a family reunion where everyone’s subtly jabbing each other with pointed remarks. Khurana, feeling like he’d been overshadowed in the sequel’s promotional hullabaloo, cheekily commented on the PR spat between Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor, hinting at a lot more behind-the-scenes maneuvering than meets the eye. “Baat Khulegi Toh Door Tak Jayegi!” he quipped. And while his irritation was as understated as a diva’s last-minute wardrobe change, it added a spicy dash of intrigue to the already sizzling credit drama.

The over-worked, over-paid PR’s of Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone, Bollywood’s beloved power couple, know how to keep things interesting. Not only do they spotlight all those “divorce” dramas, making even the golden couple’s occasional public spats breaking news. Their PR strategies ensure that the audience gets their penny worth by watching the ‘Singh-Padukone’ rom-com where the lovers bicker over who gets the last word. These playful spats, while minor in the grand scheme of their relationship, provide enough drama to keep fans entertained. It’s less about actual conflict and more about keeping their love life—and careers—buzzing with just the right amount of media mayhem.
