Intro:Body:
'I have chosen to be in the public eye. But I am not public property'
Shubra Aiyappa took to Instagram to respond to miscreants who sent her obscenely morphed images of her on DM. The actor wrote a statement and posted it with a picture that read 'Yes, I am an actress. Yes, I am a model. Yes, I have chosen to be in the public eye. But I am not public property.' As a caption to the post, Shubra put up a statement addressing the issue. She also received support from her fans and industry peers in the comments section. One of the comments is from actor Vedhika, who wrote, "U make me proud girl..with u (sic.)"
Here's the caption Shubra wrote on Instagram:
"Yes, I am an actress. Yes, I am a model. Yes, I have chosen to be in the public eye. But I am not public property. I’m not sure what hurts me more.Whether it's the knowledge of my personal space being invaded upon or the realization that some people can be so heartless, and I have the misfortune of breathing the same air as them. It's no contest really.
It is unfortunate that there have been certain people who are misguided by my bikini shoot pictures or pictures of me holidaying to brand me as an uncultured individual and taking the liberty of objectifying me, morphing some obscene images and sharing them on social media abusing, ridiculing, threatening with the intent of tarnishing my image. I will be lying if I said it didn't or doesn't affect me. It does. Because I am a thinking, feeling person who understands that my job and my profession comes with its share of detriments, responsibilities and obligations but doesn't and shouldn't come in the way of my fundamental rights to freedom of expression and choice as a woman.
I can choose to be insensitive, choose to rise above this display of cowardice and idiocy and ignore it completely knowing that tomorrow is another day and to these degenerates only means another victim. But the buck must stop somewhere. And here's a good enough place as any.
Yes, I am an actress. Yes, I am a model. Yes, I have willfully accepted that along with the adoration and fame will come a certain lack of privacy but I am also a woman, a daughter, and a sister. I am also vulnerable and entitled to a private life. I am also just like you. A regular person with normal feelings who gets hurt and feels pain, who takes holidays and lives it up
So I'm returning the favour. Like you did, I'm taking the liberty too. Except in this case it's to give you free although unsolicited advice.Do a real job, find a real purpose, and if you still have time on your hands, get a life. Start with photoshop lessons maybe, you've certainly shown some talent for it.
And for all my well wishers, I can only thank you for all your support and sharing your concern about this with me. I truly value it."
