Abstract: In the socio-political sphere, a troubling trend has emerged of angry individuals publicly slapping or inking political celebrities. Any enthusiasm people may have had for political celebrities has often given way to annoyance, disgust, rage, or discontent with them. With the help of social media and other platforms, these incidents are broadcast and gain previously unheard-of visibility. They are recorded, broadcast, and circulated, sparking political discussions and disputes. These instances of public discomfort come as an embarrassment to political celebrities who use image marketing. Such protest demonstrations are pervasive problems in the modern political system. This case is an endeavor to sensitize society to changing emotional vibrations. This case has been developed from a true story in which an Indian political celebrity, Madam Q (fictionalized) made a derogatory remark about a section of people and later had an altercation with a member of the security force at an airport. |
