Social media and the people on social media have influenced our lives to a great extent. Undoubtedly, there are some positive impacts too, but there is no denying that everything that one sees on social media is not meant for everyone. And actor Harjinder Singh, who will be seen in the movie Tipppsy, agrees with that. He believes one’s lifestyle should reflect their personal taste and choices.
“People are getting influenced by social media, despite knowing the reality behind the camera scenes. I strongly believe that if you are being influenced, make sure it’s changing your life in a good way and that you are not at a loss, whether it be at your personal or professional front. My lifestyle hasn’t shifted because I’ve fine-tuned it to fit me perfectly, ensuring it reflects my preferences and keeps me content,” he said.
And not everyone can afford the expensive clothes or luxurious lifestyles that people showcase on the internet. Harjinder feels that social media and the accessibility of goods and services through apps have contributed to a culture where materialism can flourish.
He said, “Additionally, the convenience of online shopping apps makes it easier than ever to indulge in instant gratification, further fueling materialistic tendencies. However, it’s essential to recognize that not everyone succumbs to this influence, and individuals can choose to prioritize values beyond material wealth.”
From shampoo, to combs, tissues, bags, and clothes, everything is being promoted on social media. Of course, there are only positive reviews about it, making the people on the other side of the internet desperate to buy them.
Sharing his thoughts on this, Harjinder said, “I’m selective about what I purchase, especially when it comes to products promoted by influencers. While they may endorse items for payment, I prefer to make choices based on my own research and preferences rather than relying solely on their recommendations, which may not always reflect genuine experience or knowledge of the product’s quality.”
