Suresh Oberoi Questions Industry Impact and Future Outlook

In a recent podcast with Nidhi Vasandani, Suresh reacted to the controversy and said, “We are responsible people. The global audience is riveted Before speaking, you should research, see and understand who is behind it, who all are involved.

“Are they all NEET students, or are there politicians, people throwing stones or people creating a ruckus? Lack of understanding is a formidable barrier to outspokenness. If I don’t know about something, I won’t speak about it,” he added.

Suresh also questioned the funding of CJP and argued that there are established ways of making demands. He did not approve of violent methods and said, “I will never go for any protest. My job is acting, so I will act. What is the point of becoming an activist? There is a way to demand anything.

“What kind of way is this? I don’t like it. Overnight, you want to become a star, so you throw stones and become one. It is absolutely ridiculous that you are hitting the police. You should not do that,” he said.
