Social media quickly erupted with criticism. Many questioned: if someone like Raj Kundra can be arrested for producing pornographic films, why are adult film actors like Shakespeare allowed to speak so openly?

They argued that if there are laws preventing people like Kundra from creating such content, similar restrictions should apply to the actors as well.

This triggered a major online debate. Many came to Shakespeare's defence, pointing out that the government's laws against pornography in India exist largely due to concerns over non-consensual content and exploitation, not self-expression.

Others questioned the outrage entirely: why is it wrong for adult film actors to appear on podcasts? They, too, have the right to express themselves.

In India, sexual health and conversations around it remain deeply taboo. Despite pornography being banned, people continue to find ways to access it.

But when it comes to respecting adult film actors or treating them as equals, the public often takes a step back.

Working in the adult entertainment industry is as demanding and exhausting as any other profession. Regardless of what someone does for a living, they deserve basic human respect.

Just because someone works in porn doesn't mean that defines their entire identity. The country has banned the creation of pornographic content, but it hasn't taken away anyone's right to speak, to exist, or to express themselves.

If only we normalised healthy sexual conversations as a country, the future generations would be healthier, both emotionally and mentally.
