Hrithik Roshan Backs Yami Gautam Calls for Honest Journalism
Yami Gautam’s recent statement criticising unethical marketing tactics and the growing influence of manipulated digital promotions has sparked a widespread conversation within the film industry. Her remarks highlighted concerns many creators share—especially the fear that paid negativity and orchestrated hype could distort audience perception and compromise genuine filmmaking.
Adding weight to the discussion, Hrithik Roshan publicly supported Yami’s stance. Taking to social media, he expressed deep concern over the gradual loss of authentic journalistic voice in cinema criticism.
In his detailed post, Hrithik wrote:
“More than anything, the golden thing that gets lost and leaves them and all of us impoverished is the journalists’ true voice — a chance for them to inform all the creative forces behind a movie what they felt, thought, what they applaud and criticise. Only true opinions have the potential where feedback helps us evolve. Their own right to freedom gets unknowingly usurped and so does our chance of growth. Without freedom of expression, without the truth helping us evolve, what job satisfaction can they or any of us hope for?”

His words underline an important issue: when press freedom is compromised, both creators and audiences lose out. Without honest critique, filmmakers are deprived of meaningful feedback, and journalists lose their professional autonomy.
Yami’s decision to address the issue publicly has reignited debates around transparency in film marketing, the growing pressure exerted by certain digital networks, and the ethical boundaries of promotional campaigns. Her comments reflect a larger industry sentiment—many artists now worry that skewed narratives and artificial influence could reshape the filmmaking ecosystem in damaging ways.
With leading actors like Hrithik Roshan joining the conversation, the call for ethical practices and unbiased journalism is becoming louder. Yami’s statement has clearly opened the door to a much-needed dialogue about the future of Indian cinema, its creative integrity, and the value of truth in storytelling.
