Kangana Ranaut Slams Bollywood’s Silence Over Jharkhand Students Protest: ‘Ye Doglapan Nahi Chalega’

Kangana Ranaut has criticised Bollywood’s silence over students’ protests in Jharkhand. She slammed them for their hypocrisy, stating that they shed ‘crocodile tears’ over CJP-led Jantar Mantar protests over NEET paper leak, but aren’t showing their support for Jharkhand students. In a recent interview with ANI, she said, ‘Yeh doglapan film industry ka nahi chalega’, questioning why the same concern is not being shown for students in Jharkhand.

Kangana Ranaut Slams Bollywood Celebs For Not Showing Support To Jharkhand Students

In an interview with ANI, Kangana Ranaut was asked about calling veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah a ‘lomdi’ (fox) over his comments on student protests. Defending her remark, she said, “This isn’t a new issue; the film industry has always held this attitude. You witnessed the attack on Parliament. I have many parliamentarian friends whose cars were climbed upon and whose windows were smashed. Everyone knows this; it is no secret.”

She further added, “People even climbed up to the gate of my house; there were at least two and a half thousand people outside, and such a massive police force had to be deployed that we couldn’t sleep at night. Yet, when that situation prevailed, they were shedding crocodile tears. But now, regarding the atrocities being committed against children in Jharkhand, are they not Gen Z?”

Kangana slammed Bollywood celebrities over not showing the same support to students protesting in Jharkhand. “This hypocrisy within the film industry will not do. The people in the film industry who shed crocodile tears over the Jantar Mantar protests ought to shed those same tears for the children in Jharkhand now. Those children are facing a plight too,” she said.

Kangana Ranaut Clarifies Controversial Remark On Gen-Z

A few weeks ago, Kangana hit the headlines after she criticised young people participating in the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) protests, referring to them as “Generation Gutter”.

Now, clarifying her remark, she said, “If someone claims to be a cockroach, then naturally, they would live in a gutter.” She added that she did not consider herself a “cockroach” and would reject such a description if it were directed at her. “If someone were to say I live in a gutter, I would deny it. But if someone claims to be a cockroach, then naturally, they would live in a gutter. Where else?” she said.

“Did I say that all youth belong in the gutter? I specifically referred to some people or some women,” she added.
