Kanagana Ranaut who keeps criticising Bollywood honchos time and again has found herself at the center of criticism this time. Bollywood actor, Naseeruddin Shah, without naming Kangana took a slight dig at the actress in his recent interview with India Today. Shah talked about his opinion on the nepotism debacle that has intensified after the death of Sushant Singh Rajput and called Kangana ‘some half-educated-starlet’.
“No one is interested in the opinions of some half-educated starlet who decides to take it upon herself to, you know, get justice for Sushant. If there is justice that needs to be done, I think we need to have faith in the process of the law and if it is none of our business, I think we should not concern ourselves with it,” he said.
Acknowledging Shah’s comment, Kangana’s team took to their verified handle to reply. “Thank you Naseer ji, you weighed all my awards and achievements which non of my contemporaries have on the scale of nepotism,I am used to this but would you say this to me if I were Parkash Padukone/Anil Kapoor’s daughter ?” it wrote.
The Kangana Team then shared a clip of actor’s old conversation and wrote: “Naseer ji is a great artist, itne mahan kalakar ki toh gaaliyaan bhi bhagwan ke parshad ki tareh hain, I rather watch amazing conversation we had about cinema and our craft last year and you told me how much you appreciate me.”
Meanwhile, talking about Sushant Singh Rajput’s death, Shah said: , “It’s sickening. It is absolutely sickening. I have not followed it. I felt deeply grieved when the young man died. I did not know him but he had a bright future and it was a waste of a life. But I did not bother to follow the nonsense that’s being spouted by a whole lot of people.Every person who has any little frustration in his mind, in his heart, about the commercial industry, has been vomiting it out to the press. It is absolutely disgusting. I mean, keep these complaints to yourself, no one is interested.”
The Supreme Court on Wednesday handed over the Sushant Singh Rajput case to CBI as the mystery around young actor’s death continues to deepen. The SC in its statement said that the young actor sure had a bright future ahead, while adding obstruction of Bihar cops in Maharashtra has definitely raised suspicion against Mumbai Police.
