Dharna Durga, a digital content creator with 1.8 million followers, is making her Bollywood debut in the Netflix film 'Maa Behen.' A recent promotional event went viral when paparazzi focused on established stars Madhuri Dixit and Triptii Dimri, prompting discussions about the treatment of influencers in mainstream cinema. In response to criticism regarding whether influencers are cast for their follower count rather than talent, director Suresh Triveni defended the casting choices, stating that Dharna was selected based on her performance skills. He emphasized that the term 'influencer' is a marketing label and that creators like Dharna are already performers in their own right. Dharna expressed her determination to ignore the trolling, stating, 'If you want to say something, go ahead. You will speak anyway; what else can you do sitting at home?' 'Maa Behen' is set to release on Netflix on June 4 and stars notable actors including Madhuri Dixit and Ravi Kishan.
