Tanisha Mukherjee sparks debate over comments on affairs with married men

Bollywood actress Tanisha Mukherjee has ignited a social media debate following comments regarding women who engage in relationships with married men. In a post on X, Mukherjee stated that such women cannot be considered feminists, describing them instead as being ‘against women’ because their actions disrespect the wife of the man involved.

While Mukherjee criticized the character of married men who participate in these affairs, she placed significant emphasis on the responsibility of the women pursuing them, suggesting they are not suitable role models for children.

The remarks have drawn mixed reactions online. Some users supported her stance, arguing that those who intentionally disrupt marriages should be criticized. Others countered that the primary responsibility lies with the married men who have made formal commitments to their spouses, accusing Mukherjee of placing disproportionate blame on women.
