"Full Of Homosexuality, Gay-Lesbianism": Ameesha Patel Says OTT Platforms Don't Provide "Clean" Entertainment
Ameesha Patel said that audiences are hungry for clean entertainment which cannot be found on OTT platforms.
Actress Ameesha Patel will next be seen in 'Gadar 2' which has been directed by Anil Sharma. The 'Kaho Na Pyaar Hai' star has been giving interviews left, right, and centre, and in the latest entertainment news, a controversial interview has emerged in which Ameesha Patel ended up making some homophobic comments. In a new interview, Ameesha Patel said that audiences are hungry for clean entertainment which cannot be found on OTT platforms.
She also said that content on streaming is "full of homosexuality" and it is the kind of material that forces parents to put child locks on their televisions.
“People are waiting for good, clean cinema. The era where you could make cinema that a grandchild could sit and watch with a grandparent is completely missing. OTT for sure doesn’t give you that. Because OTT is full of, homosexuality, gay-lesbianism… Scenes that you have to cover your kids’ eyes or actually put a child lock on your television so they can’t access those platforms. It’s not something you really want your kids to watch," Ameesha Patel told Bollywood Hungama.
“Indians couldn’t travel that much, we didn’t have that much fashion. Everything that you wanted was through cinema… We didn’t even have an organised music industry. You depended on film music; costumes, fashion, everything came from cinema, and I think people are missing that essence. Gadar, they feel, is an answer to that,” she added.
'Gadar 2' which also stars Sunny Deol, will be releasing in the theatres on August 11, and it will be going up against Akshay Kumar, Pankaj Tripathi, and Yami Gautam-starrer 'OMG 2' at the box office.
“It’s got the family values, it’s got the heart-wrenching moments, the great action, the dialogues, the music; everything you expect from Gadar is there.” Gadar 2 is scheduled to be released in theatres on August 11, a full 22 years after the first film became a runaway blockbuster," said Ameesha.
