Actually, that does sound extraordinarily problematic because it simply perpetuates the notion that ladies could be fairly or good, and by no means each.
While I’m certain Big B did not have any dangerous intentions with what he mentioned, in the event you have a look at it objectively, it does sound moderately problematic and folks had been fast to level that out.
I didn’t just like the remark about linking magnificence with brains. Stupid of Mr. Bachchan to counsel that stunning ladies can’t be economists.

Yes, it was very pointless.
Most sexist comment although. Indicative of the restricted information and regressive outlook of this so referred to as nice man. Beautiful folks can’t be economists and vice versa ? And why even touch upon the face ? It’s a quiz.
