Israel-Hamas War: Kalki Koechlin deletes her social media account for this reason

Kalki Koechlin shared a screenshot of her account being deleted on platform X (previously Twitter), alleging the dissemination of misinformation and hatred relating to the Israel-Hamas conflict as the primary cause. Before removing the app from her phone, the Goldfish actor shared a touching screenshot on Instagram. 

She shared, “Had to do this today. The hate and disinformation, the doom scrolling, the helplessness. But what crossed the line for me, what made me draw a boundary was the denial or the justification of Palestinian children murdered in the thousands or the denial or glorification of Israeli women being raped, tortured, and murdered, I have had enough.”

Kalki also provided a list of resources that assisted her in gaining a better understanding of the difficult subject. This decision drew a lot of attention and support from online users, including fellow performer Sayani Gupta, she wrote,” Oh man. Absolutely. There’s no nuance anymore! No sense of what’s just. It’s all about polarization. This or that. Choose a side and hate the other. Also, I got off Twitter maybe almost two years ago. Best cleanse ever!”

Many fans complimented Kalki for speaking out on the Israel-Palestine conflict, especially while other stars in the Indian film industry remained mute. 

A user commented, “Good to see that someone from Bollywood has some nerves to speak the truth. Love you for this,” while another thanked her “for being one of the only few celebrities from Bollywood to speak out for the cause of Palestine.”
