Kolkata Models Face Backlash for Attire at Durga Puja Pandal

Models' outfits at a religious festival spark widespread debate on social media over appropriateness and cultural norms.

The controversy began when models Hemoshree Bhadra and Sannati Mitra wore revealing outfits to a Durga Puja pandal in Kolkata.
Photos of the models in cleavage-baring tops and thigh-high slits went viral, leading to criticism from social media users.
Critics argue the attire was inappropriate for a religious setting, while others defend the models' right to choose their clothing.
The models responded by highlighting the absence of a dress code at the pandal and questioning the backlash.
This incident has reignited discussions on cultural norms, moral policing, and personal freedom in public spaces.
