On his 55th birthday, Milind Soman had taken to social media to share a nude photo of him running on the beach. Fans were all praise for him, marveling at how fit he is at 55.
On the other hand, the women’s wing of Goa Forward Party filed a complaint against actor Poonam Pandey for allegedly shooting a ‘vulgar’ video at Chapoli Dham.
Twitter was quick to call out the double standards of the society when it came to treating men and women
Screenwriter Apurva Asrani wrote that Poonam Pandey is in legal trouble for obscenity. Soman is being lauded for his fit body at age 55. I guess we are kinder to our nude men than to our nude women.

Founder of Chaaipani, Shruti Chaturvedi also echoed a similar thought.
Expressing her shock, actor Parul Yadav tweeted, “The #hypocrisy is astounding…why is a man applauded and a woman arrested for doing the same thing? About time we move past this #inequality…

GFP’s complaint states the video was shot on restricted-access government property adding that the video shot by the actor-model is ‘a sort of assault on Goan women and has tarnished the image of Goa.
