After Virat-Anushka’s natural photo went viral in Wimbledon, trolling started on social media about his look. Many users opposed this and question the pressure of the ‘perfect look’ imposed on women.
Virat and Anushka Viral Photo: Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma and Indian cricket superstar Virat Kohli are spending time in England with their children these days. There are reports that this couple wants to give their children a normal and quiet childhood away from the dazzling of the media. However, no official statement has come on this. Recently, the two appeared at the Wimbledon Tennis Championship in London, where they arrived to watch the match of Novak Djokovic. The pictures of both have gone viral, which people are watching and criticizing them.
Actress Anushka Sharma and cricketer Virat Kohli visited the Wimbledon Tennis Championship in London on Tuesday. Celebrity Couple was seen playing Novak Djokovic from the Royal Box of the Center Court of the Ironic Tennis Venue. Seeing the match, many of his photos went viral, in which Virat and Anushka were seen bored during the game. People did not desist from criticizing some of these photos.
In this photo that went viral, Anushka Sharma was seen looking away from the camera and had a normal, without filter look on her face. Virat was sitting next to him and the face of both looked serious. Some social media users wrote about this photo that “the photographer did not do it well”.
The focus on the photo was done only on Anushka’s skin, gesture and age, such as the natural looking of a woman is nothing short of a crime. People also commented on his face with freckles and without makeup.
Despite the comments of the people, this time humanity was also seen on the Internet. Many people responded to those critics and said, “Why do women need to look perfect all the time?” One user wrote, “Neither the photographer did anything wrong, nor Anushka. This photo is just a true glimpse of a human being, not the art of any editing app.” A user wrote in the comment, “If a photo is with the filter, people say that it is fake. And when the photo of the filter comes, they also make fun of it. When will you start looking at humans like a human being?”
Another important thing came to light in this debate, and that was that when people were not cursing Virat’s age or face, then why is Anushka only? Do we still believe that women cannot increase age? Is it necessary to look glamorous at all times? Along with the common people, the media also judges women more.
This view of Wimbledon is not only sports but also a mirror of society’s mindset. A normal C photo showed how women are still “expected to look perfect” even today, even if they are one of the most successful and strong women in the world. Sometimes the real beauty is in the ease that the camera captures and the society is unable to accept.
