GK was an epitome of dignity &grace-a reminder social media is all fluff - you might have millions of followers but unless that is based on real life achievements - they mean little. In a show that glorifies lies, deceit, abuse, he dared to be diff. #biggBoss19 #GauravKhannaπ΅

@nilanjanab Spot on Nilanjana! AI is beginning to grow out of control and bounds. Especially for women, deep fake videos are a huge challenge. Where are the safeguards? Controls?

#MetaAI is going to be sooooo problematic. i can barely look at the default timeline without cringing. On the one hand we are constantly discussing how to make AI gender sensitive and on the other apps like these are making it super easy to objectify women.

As news journalists we learn to take everything that is thrown our way (just for doing our jobs) in our stride and continue nonetheless, placing our trust in the law of the land&in the spirit of truth that guides it. But it can be extremely exhausting! https://t.co/Hn8i6kcZZ1

He did not care about being in the spotlight at all times - he did not change his personality despite the host insulting him at every opportunity but that's how he also grabbed footage till the last week. As a seasoned actor he knows being talked abt is always good.πππ

#GauravKhanna had to do nothing - but be himself.that made the others uncomfortable & insecure, unsure of themselves, &they kept discussing him, being nasty (even his so called friends) through to the last week. His name was all over the season even when he was not in the frame.

And these influencers with millions of followers are so jealous of this man - cos he's an actual celebrity. Also they just can't fathom why he is getting so much support from the people. Because dignity is a dying art. People have sold it off to monetise their content.

I watch Bigg Boss some years. I am watching #BigBoss19 and the way the entire house gangs up on #GauravKhannaπ΅ - a true achiever, industry outsider, one who is mild mannered, measured & not very outgoing shows how the influencer culture has completely ruined our social fabric.

Online shopping was all about convenience-now it's a major headache. We save time by ordering from home and then spend hours to return/replace sub-standard products. @amazonIN for eg is flooded with fraudulent sellers that it refuses to discipline. Time to go back to the shops!
