· Entertainment · Indian Express, Times of India
Pop-rock band Euphoria frontman Dr Palash Sen said actor Salman Khan was part of the problem regarding negative PR in the film industry. Speaking in an exclusive conversation with SCREEN, Sen questioned whether Khan's recent comments addressing trolling and funded PR on Bigg Boss 20 were scripted. Sen recalled an incident where an A-list female actor's film trailer received excessive dislikes, highlighting how difficult it is to distinguish between organic and paid reactions. He noted that industry figures who have maintained their positions for years have played the PR game before speaking out like saints. Sen added that problems in the industry originate from the top rather than the bottom of the hierarchy.
