Filmfare calls Malaika, Shilpa 'hottest moms'; Gets rapped by filmmaker Agnihotri

Filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri has criticised Filmfare magazine after it tweeted a sexist comment calling Malaika Arora and Shilpa Shetty Kundra as "among the hottest moms" of Bollywood while sharing their picture.

In reply to their tweet, Agnihotri replied saying, "I think this...stupidity must stop. What is hottest mom?". "This harms the cause of feminism...when you create class amongst mothers based on body type. Shameful".

Malaika Arora made her debut as a film producer in 2008, with former husband Arbaaz Khan, founding the company Arbaaz Khan Productions, which has created the Dabangg film series. In 1991, after completing her tenth grade examinations, Shetty began her career as a model with a Limca television commercial, and subsequently featured in several other commercials and advertisements, following which she began receiving offers for film roles. Shetty continued to pursue her career as a model, until she became an actress. In February 2009, Shetty got engaged to Raj Kundra, with whom she was co-owner of the Indian Premier League (IPL) cricket team Rajasthan Royals. The two married on 22 November 2009. Shetty gave birth to a son, Viaan Raj Kundra, on 21 May 2012. The couple had a second child, a girl, on 15 Feb 2020 via surrogacy.
