Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has taken action against Shahrukh Khan, Ajay Devgan and Tiger Shroff over the advertisement of Vimal Cardamom. Show cause notice has been issued to all three. FDA alleges that ‘Vimal Pan Masala’, banned in the state, is being indirectly promoted through the advertisement of ‘Vimal Cardamom’.
After this case, old statements regarding promotion of products harmful to the health of artists have again come into discussion. Shahrukh Khan and Ajay Devgan have already said that if a product is harmful for health, then the government should ban its manufacture and sale.
Shahrukh had said- Don’t stop my earning In an old interview given to CNN-IBN, Shahrukh Khan was asked that the Health Minister has appealed to the celebrities not to advertise products like soft drinks, because children start drinking them after seeing them. On this, Shahrukh had said that if cigarettes or soft drinks are bad, then the government should stop their sale and production in the country.
Government gets revenue, then why do they stop my earning? Shahrukh Khan had argued in his reply that the government does not stop such products because they are a source of revenue for the government. Shahrukh had said that when the government is not stopping production for its revenue, then his earnings should also not be stopped. He said that he is an actor and earning money by working is his profession. If something is really wrong, then its making should stop.
Ajay Devgan said- I only promote cardamom Even in the year 2022, when the controversy over such advertisements had increased, actor Ajay Devgan had presented his side. Ajay had said that he only advertises ‘Elaichi’ and denied the allegations of surrogate advertising.
He had said that using a product depends on the personal preference of the person. Ajay also agreed with Shahrukh Khan and said that if a product is harmful, then first of all its manufacturing should be banned.
