Amala Fries On Media Being Over-Reactive
By: Tupaki Desk | 1 March 2018 1:11 PM GMT
Amala Akkineni is one of the most talented and kind-hearted women in our Industry. She never really came out to say anything bad or negative but the media has pushed even her to come out and release a letter about their over-reactiveness for everything.
In a long letter, she asked them to stop commenting everything in a celebrity's life. Here you can read what she said,
Will you let me age gracefully?
Will you let me age gracefully without needing to comment on how tired I look or the weight I have gained?
The shadows under my eyes are from reading glass lines and freckles change to age spots everyday.
Will you let me dress without feeling low self esteem that I am not size zero anymore, nor that I wear the season's couture?
A washed handloom engulfs me providing market to the looms, comfortably accommodating menopause.
Will you let me stop colouring my hair, let me wear it short, without referring to my long tresses in Pushpak, at 19?
The bad hair days get captured, not the wisdom I carry, and that's demoralizing. Surely cameras can show the depth of a person and not just the surface?
Will you let me discuss meaningful things without interrupting the flow with questions on how I cook or what the season's latest gossip demands?
My inner being thrives on accomplishing things that make a difference, things I seek to complete before my physical form is put to rest.
Will you let me walk through my day with peace and calm without the endless messages to attend events teeming with emptiness?
I need to complete life's mission, but I can't if my head spins in endless carousels, important to you, no doubt.
Will you free me of the box office madness, the TRP wars, Page 3, the likes, the comments, the traps that menacingly surround everything we do?
You have caught me in a time warp, a cage of fame, while my spirit is free.
Allow me a life, some privacy, to engage with humanity and the universe, with purpose, truth, compassion and some respect for those now gone.

Well, when even a person, who is known for smiling all the time and highly welcoming, had to come up with a letter, then media needs to think about their stance once again! Our humble request!
