‘Never expected movie mafia will rise to the occasion’ - said kangana ranaut
The actor has now appreciated its theatrical business
Bollywood actor Kangana Ranaut took to Instagram stories on Saturday to congratulate the team of Gangubai Kathiawadi and wrote that she never expected ‘move mafia will rise to the occasion’ and help the theatres that are on ‘ventilator here’.
Kangana’s post read, “Happy to listen to theatres are being revived in south industry with record breaking collections…! Hear some baby steps are being taken in Hindi belt also… with recent female centric film which encompasses a big hero and a brilliant star director… they will be baby steps but they're not insignificant, they'll be crucial for theatres which are on ventilator here.. Great!! Never expected that movie mafia will rise to the occasion and do something good… If they are doing we'll be absolutely appreciative… Hoping for the most effective.”
Kangana’s mention of south films refers to the recent releases – Tamil film Valimai starring Ajith and Telugu film Bheemla Nayak starring Pawan Kalyan, that have opened strongly within the southern states. Gangubai Kathiawadi starring Alia Bhatt has been directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and has released exclusively in theatres.
Kangana had previously said that the Bhansali film’s biggest drawback was Bhatt’s casting. She shared on Instagram, “This Friday, 200 cr visiting are burnt to ashes at the box office… For a papa (movie mafia daddy) ki pari (who likes to stay a British passport) because papa wants to prove that romcom bimbo can act… Biggest drawback of the film is wrong casting… Yeh nahi sudhrenge no wonder screens are going to South and Hollywood films… Bollywood is destined to doom jab tak movie mafia has power.”
