Kangana Ranaut on Saturday said the system in place in Bollywood helps people with privilege and repels when it is challenged.
At the India Today Conclave 2019, she said her many fallouts in the industry happened because she was always presented do-or-die situations in which she always fought her survival. She opened up about her legendary tiffs with Hrithik Roshan and Karan Johar.
Asked about not being mentioned on best actress lists in Koffee With Karan, Kangana said, "I don't feel left out. I really feel I stand out. When you talk about actresses, here's a three-time National Award-winning actress. The Mr Johars of the world try to present a list of people whose acting abilities are questionable. It's brain-feeding of another magnitude."
Speaking about her tense relationship with Hrithik, she had this to say.
“Talking about this so-called case which never actually happened, here’s a person I have worked with in two films. He is completely denying even knowing me and getting away with it. How does that even happen? You’re saying that you don’t know the person at all but you have worked with the same person for five years. One film took two years to make and the other took three years. How come you don’t know the person? This is absurd. Even to think that you can get away with something like that is in itself a sign of powerdrunkness,”Kangana Ranaut
When asked about Karan taking digs at her, Kangana had this reply.
“Karan mocked me on the IIFA stage and said that I am jobless and I am looking for jobs from him or something like that. I mean, look at my talent and look at your movies. I mean, really? He really called me jobless on some platform? I think some people need a dose of chyavanprash,”
Finally, Kangana was asked how she’d react if she were to swap places with Hrithik and Karan. "He will never be where I am," she instantly responded with a laugh.
