Social media has certainly become an integral part of our lives especially of the young generation and not everyone is happy about it. The Bollywood actor Arshad Warsi who is father of 19 yrs old son (Zeke) and 17 yrs old daughter (Zene) is not happy with the effect of social media on the young generation.
During an interview on a YouTube channel, Arshad Warsi stated, “The whole thing about, ‘You have to try everything’ has become the new norm. Matlab har woh cheez joh purkho ke zamaane se chali aa rahi hai, humare maa baap ne sikhayi hai, woh saari cheezein galat hain! This is the result of social media.”
He further added, “There is a thing that I’ve heard from my kids: ‘We are not going out right now. We are not committed, but we are still hanging out and everything is happening.’ But what is really happening? One guy will come along, identifying himself as a cup or something else, and that’s the problem. Kids are consuming that sh*t and just getting scr***d. Unfortunately, they will only realise this later.”
Do you agree with Arshad Warsi in regard to social media?
