"The question remains, are you not misusing social media under the guise of modernity?" wrote the actor. "Have you ever thought about what impacts, your unmonitored content would have on the new generation? Do you have the capacity to understand the consequences of those content? Are you really doing anything to benefit society?"

"There is a feature called 'Reel' on Facebook and I cannot even imagine the magnitude of the obscenity that appears on there…" continues the actor. "Who would stop these censor-less activities? Can we not expect such monitoring, laws, and regulations from our government?"

Chanchal shared, "Such activities made their place due to our support or indifference; can you deny that?? No, you can't. This situation was born because of our childishness and indifferent attitude, and love for cheap entertainment."

The "Hawa" star believes that all of us are responsible for this unmonitored abuse of social media and its high time we change that. He warns about the consequences of such abuse of social media, and urges everyone to be alert of this misconduct.
