After taking a dig at Deepika Padukone’s movie Gehraiyaan, Kangana Ranaut has now targeted Alia Bhatt and her upcoming movie Gangubai Kathiawadi which is set to hit the theatres this Friday. The actor took to Instagram stories to claim that Rs 200 crore will be wasted at the box office on Friday owing to the release of the film. Besides, she also said that the film’s biggest mistake is “wrong casting.”
Although the Queen actress did not mention Alia’s name directly on her Instagram stories, how approach suggested that she was talking about Alia. She allegedly called Alia Bhatt ‘daddy’s angel’ and Mahesh Bhatt a ‘movie mafia.’ Kangana stated that the Bollywood industry is destined to be doomed as long as the movie mafia holds power as well as the industry is losing out on screens in theatres to South and Hollywood movies because the Hindi industry refuses to learn. On her Instagram story, Kangana wrote, “This Friday 200cr will be burnt to ashes at the box office … for a papa (movie mafia daddy) ki pari (who likes to keep a British passport) because papa wants to prove that romcom bimbo can act… biggest drawback of the film is wrong casting…yeh nahi sudhrenge (these people won’t change) no wonder screens are going to South and Hollywood films … Bollywood is destined for doom jab tak movie mafia has power…”
Sharing another story on Instagram, Kangana wrote, “Bollywood mafia daddy papa Jo to who has single handedly ruined the work culture in the film industry, has emotionally manipulated many big directors and forced his products of mediocrity on their cinematic brilliance, another example will be following soon after this relase… people need to stop entertaining him, in this friday relase even a big hero and greatest director are the new victims of his manipulations…”
Earlier, Kangana objected to a video where a young girl was seen replicating Alia Bhatt’s character from Gangubai Kathiawadi. Taking to Instagram stories, Kangana wrote, “Should this child imitate a sex worker with a beedi in her mouth and crude and obscene dialogues? Look at her body language, is it ok to sexualize her at this age? There are hundreds of other children who are being used similarly.”
Gangubai Kathiawadi directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali stars Alia Bhatt along with Ajay Devgn in the pivotal role. The period drama has been adapted from Hussain Zaidi’s book, Mafia Queens of Mumbai. Alia will portray the role of Gangubai, one of the most powerful madams of Kamathipura during the 1960s.
