Controversy Surrounds Deepika Padukone’s Online Sale of Clothes

Deepika Padukone has found herself at the center of a new controversy, and this time, it involves her online sale of pre-worn clothes. Known for often being in the spotlight due to various reasons, Deepika’s latest action has sparked widespread criticism across India.

The issue arose when Deepika decided to sell clothes she had previously worn to support the Live Love Laugh Foundation, a charity she passionately backs. Among the items listed for sale were two dresses that particularly caught the public’s attention. One was a dress she wore to the funeral of actress Jiah Khan, and the other was an outfit she donned at the funeral of Priyanka Chopra’s father.

This revelation did not sit well with many, who took to social media to express their outrage. A user on Twitter highlighted the issue, questioning the appropriateness of selling such items. The tweet read, “I am appalled to see my favorite actress Deepika Padukone auctioning a kurta she wore to multiple funerals in 2013. Who sells second-hand clothes worn to funerals? Why not donate them to someone in need? This is not about charity; it’s about sensitivity and respect.”

The backlash has been intense, with many accusing Deepika of being insensitive and tone-deaf. Critics argue that she could have easily donated these clothes to someone in need or given them to a domestic worker, rather than putting them up for sale.

As the controversy continues to unfold, the Bollywood community and fans alike are closely watching Deepika’s response. This incident has certainly stirred emotions and sparked a debate on the fine line between charity and insensitivity.
