Kalki Koechlin removes X app from her phone; cites hate during Palestine-Israel crisis as reason

Actor Kalki Koechlin has announced that she is deleting her X account. The actor took to Instagram and shared a screenshot of herself deleting X from her phone. 

Kalki cited misinformation and hate during the Palestine and Israel situation as reason to delete the micro-blogging site from her phone.

She wrote, “Had to do this today. The hate and disinformation, the doom scrolling, the helplessness. But what really crossed the line for me, what really made me draw a boundary was the denial or the justification of Palestinian children murdered in the thousands or the denial or glorification of Israeli women being raped, tortured and murdered, I have had enough.” 

Actor Sayani Gupta supported Dev D actor’s decision and wrote, “Oh man. Absolutely. There’s no nuance anymore! No sense of what’s just. It’s all about polarisation. This or that. Choose a side and hate on the other. Also, had gotten off Twitter maybe almost two years ago. Best cleanse ever!” 

Kalki will next be seen in R Arvind's Emma And Angel.
