Kangana Ranaut is known for boldly speaking out against nepotism and groupism in Bollywood. She has criticized the industry's favoritism toward those with connections. Her outspoken views have sparked important debates about fairness and the industry's culture.
The actress once again shared her concerns about the film industry, saying she faces backlash whenever she speaks out. She highlighted that raising issues comes at a cost, as she often faces police complaints and criticism.
At the India TV Conclave, Kangana spoke about ongoing groupism, gang culture, and bullying in Bollywood. She mentioned that despite debates on nepotism after Sushant Singh Rajput’s death, the issue persists. She added that whenever she raises concerns, she faces FIRs and backlash but remains determined to speak her mind.
Her latest film, Emergency, premiered on an OTT platform last week and has been praised by audiences and industry insiders. The film explores the 1975 Emergency imposed by Indira Gandhi and even sparked Oscar buzz. However, Kangana dismissed the idea, stressing the importance of India's National Awards over Western recognition.
Meanwhile, Kangana has directed and produced Emergency, in which she portrays Indira Gandhi. The film features an ensemble cast, including Anupam Kher, Shreyas Talpade, Vishak Nair, Milind Soman, and the late Satish Kaushik.
