Journalist Oishani Mojumder attacks Bollywood fraternity
Says, "these are the kind of inhuman, privileged, horrible, shameful questions" it will ask
Strongly reacting to Bollywood PR Dale Bhagwagar’s Facebook post about the recent Aurangabad train tragedy, journalist Oishani Mojumder shared his post, critiquing him and criticizing the film fraternity in extremely harsh words.
In his post talking about migrant workers sleeping on railway tracks, Dale had pointed towards common sense in human beings. His post read: “Koi railway tracks pe kyun soyega !?! Intnee bhi kam akkal kaise ho sakti hai insaan mein !?! #AurangabadTragedy”
Mojumder, whose FB profile claims that she has worked with The New Indian Express, Deccan Chronicle and The Times of India, reacted: “These are the kind of inhuman, privileged, horrible, shameful questions that the Bollywood fraternity will ask, rather than an audit of the PM Cares fund.”

“I am reminded of how many in the fraternity had asked ‘koi foot path pe kyu soyega?’ when Salman Khan “allegedly” ran over a homeless migrant worker,” the journalist further said in her reactive post.
Journalist Mojumder added, “Bollywood cares only about it’s bucks y’all. Every tragedy proves it more so. I hope they are paying their spot dadas, make up artists, body doubles, and every other labourer on set that makes all our favourite films possible. And not asking them, ‘Bhai patri/footpath pe kyu soye’.”
We do not know if journalists working with The New Indian Express, Deccan Chronicle or The Times of India would be opinionated or have any bias towards Bollywood. But since we believe media and media persons should not be opinionated, we leave it up to you to decide about and decipher the words uttered above.
