Aftab Shivdasani Defends Mastii 4, Says It Does Not Aim To Objectify Women

Aftab Shivdasani is now making waves for his return to the big screen with the popular franchise Masti. The actor stars in Mastiii 4 , alongside Riteish Deshmukh and Vivek Oberoi. The film is directed

by Milap Zaveri. As the film prepares to hit theatres on November 21, the actor discussed the film’s themes. He explained that the film does not encourage objectifying women or promote extramarital affairs.

Defending the film’s theme, Aftab Shivdasani told Times Now, “Yes, from Masti 1, people said we were objectifying women and promoting extramarital affairs. But the premise of the film was simple: three men want to have fun outside, but end up learning a lesson from their wives. We were never trying to preach. It’s all for entertainment, not to oversensitize people. Many serious films have tackled the topic of affairs, but no one questions those.”

Aftab Shivdasani Defends Mastii 4’s Storyline

Moreover, he added that films like Masti are intended to make people laugh. There are many independent films about extramarital affairs, but when Masti touches on it, it causes a big stir. It’s only for fun and people should not take it seriously. When asked about the concept of a ‘love visa’ portrayed in Masti 4, Aftab shared that he was not familiar with love visas in real life and was not ‘advocating for it.’

Mastii 4- Plot and Cast

Mastii 4, which will be released on November 21, reunites Riteish Deshmukh, Vivek Oberoi, and Aftab Shivdasani, while also including Arshad Warsi, Tusshar Kapoor, Nargis Fakhri, Elnaaz Norouzi, Ruhi Singh, Shreya Sharma, and Shaad Randhawa.

The trailer depicts the performers getting themselves into ridiculous circumstances, resulting in a chain of blunders and bewilderment.

It’s loud, silly, and occasionally stupid, and this is intended. Mastiii 4 amps up the comedy, emphasising no logic and maximum laughs, both of which are characteristics of this type of cinema.
