Actress-turned-filmmaker Kangana Ranaut, who is currently riding high on the success of her latest release “Manikarnika – The Queen of Jhansi”, says the Hindi film industry has called for trouble by ganging up against her.<\/p>\n
Kangana in an interview earlier had criticised celebrities for not turning up for the screening of “Manikarnika…”, but contacting her for the screenings of their films.<\/p>\n
“Earlier, I used to stand up against sexism, pay disparity and nepotism in Bollywood but now, I will expose everybody. One thing is for sure that they have called for trouble by ganging up against me,” she said.<\/p>\n
Asked if her “Manikarnika…” would have got more benefit if her colleagues from Bollywood would have promoted the film, Kangana said: “I don’t think promotions of my film by other actors will benefit my film. I have already won three national awards and at the age of 31, I have become a filmmaker so who are they to promote me? If they get successful in promoting themselves then, it will be a huge thing for them.”<\/p>\n
The “Queen” actress strongly believes that the industry is ganging up against her as she spoke about nepotism in the Hindi film industry.<\/p>\n
“I want to ask that whether Rani Laxmibai is my aunt? She is the iconic figure of this country so, why are they behaving like this? It’s just because I talked about nepotism. They all have ganged up against me asking me why I have talked about nepotism,” Kangana said at the special screening of the film held for school children on February 7.<\/p>\n
She added: “It’s like a class full of students where the class of 60 students are ganging up against one student and they are constantly bullying him so, tell me how does it feels?”<\/p>\n
The 31-year-old actress, who had sparked the infamous debate by calling filmmaker Karan Johar a “flagbearer of nepotism” during her appearance on his chat show “Koffee With Karan” in 2017, labelled Bollywood celebrities as shameless.<\/p>\n
