The melodious voice of singer KJ Yesudas touches many hearts. But today when he talked, many were outraged.
The melodious voice of singer KJ Yesudas touches many hearts.
But today when he talked, many were outraged.
The Kerala-born singer, who has been conferred with the honours like Padma Sri and Padma Vibhushan, said when women wear jeans, others are forced to look beyond that (jeans).
“What should be covered must be covered. Our culture involves the beauty which should be covered. Women should not trouble others by wearing jeans. When they put on jeans, men are tempted to look beyond that (jeans),” he said.
Well, this may be called his personal opinion and there should not be much hullaballoo regarding it.
But what he said next perhaps did not let the heads turn back which were already infuriating.
“Women’s beauty lies in their modesty. They should not try to become like men. They should not force others to do unnecessary things by wearing jeans, which would give them magnetism,” Yesudas added.
And he landed himself in a big mess. Now the public has mixed feelings (ahmm) for him.
Take a look at the tweets he received:
Ok Yesudas said something stupid. Is it worth so much discussion? Let him hold his view, he does not make laws in India

If you cannot bear the temptation of a woman wearing jeans, then dear Yesudas, please blindfold yourself like Gandhari

Now whenever Yesudas will see a girl wearing jeans, he will remember this day ad think that he should have done what he does best. Not talking but singing.
