In a democratic country, anyone can talk about anything. But there is an unwritten condition to this 'Freedom of expression'. They have to lose something if they talk whatever they wish or else they have to keep quiet. One has to carefully choose his words when talking about something, considering what he is ready to 'lose' for expressing his opinions.
Actors, writers, sportspersons don't give their frank opinions on politics in a hurried manner. The reason is simple. Their work is appreciated by everybody cutting across the caste, religion, region, and language.
Their fans may be from various castes, religions, regions and they may believe in different political ideologies. If a celebrity speaks his mind and if it hurts the sentiments of a section, then the celebrity will lose them. This is especially true in the case of movie heroes.
When Pawan Kalyan floated a political party, his fan base got split. If the hero is prepared for the loss, then its fine. Some heroes will not be mentally prepared for such things when they are responding to some issue. They may think that they have supported their relatives/well wishers but they don't actually think of the consequences.
Out of compulsion, or any other pressure they will issue statements and land in trouble. Hero Ram has done the same thing but he understood the actual situation within no time. He went on to support the Ramesh Hospital management, who are his relatives in the fire mishap incident with a series of tweets but he realized the impact with netizens’ negative reactions and trolls.
When he realized the mess he got into, he immediately tried to distance himself from the episode by saying that he will not tweet about it again.
The actors have to be careful when they are expressing their opinions.
Hero Ram has openly pledged his support to the Ramesh Hospital management but didn't talk about the people who lost their precious lives in the fire mishap.
Watching Sonu Sood, the celebrities can learn many things on how to act in times of crisis to win the love of people. On the contrary, by watching Ram's hasty reactions, celebrities must learn how to be composed and balanced while expressing their reactions to a complex issue.
