What are your thoughts in this? Do you think celebrities should not be allowed to promote gambling or should they just be more careful about what kind of gambling they are promoting? Is it ok as long as any gambling promoted is legal?
More than personal I believe people should obey the rules of jurisdiction they belong to. But as I read the news, it's more of a grey zone where some people get away with gambling promotions while some have trouble with the authorities. Skill based games, games or fantasy sports or gambling, its difficult to draw a line where we could call it gambling.
I have seen many popular Indian celebrities specially both South and Bollywood who come to Nepal to promote casinos here. Not only the popular ones in Kathmandu or Pokhara but also to smaller casinos in lesser know places near the border with India whose 99% gamblers come from India. And all of them get away with it without any issue.
