Kangana Ranaut who made her debut with the film Gangster in 2006, earning acclaim for her performance, has frequently criticised Bollywood, and her recent remarks were no exception. While promoting her upcoming film Emergency, she described the film industry as a ‘hopeless’ environment, alleging that it actively ‘boycotts’ talented individuals. She further accused Bollywood of destroying numerous careers and suggested that there is a pervasive jealousy towards skilled actors.
Kangana told Mashable India, "Only a people have a problem with me otherwise if you see me, I won an election and the kind of love that I receive from the industry, proves my point. So the problem is me or with them?"
"Bollywood is, honestly I am saying, it is a very hopeless place. Kuch nahi hone wala inka. Ek toh talent se ye jalte hain. Jo bhi inko talented dikhta hain na uske piche pad ke ya toh usko khatam kar dete hain unka career barbaad kar dete hain unko boycott kar dete hain. Itna ganda PR kar kar ke unko badnaam karte hain (Nothing will happen with them. They are jealous of talent. If they see someone talented they go after them to destroy their career. Horrible PR is written on them and they are boycotted from the industry)," she added.
