What Kangana said

During the conversation, the actor said, “It’s just people who have a problem with me. If you see me, I have won an election and the kind of love I get from the industry proves my point. So is it me or them who have the problem?”

When the host asked about her stance on the Bollywood boycott, Kangana said, “Bollywood is a very hopeless place, frankly speaking. Kuch nahi hone wala inka. Ek toh talent se you jalte hain. Jo bhi inko talented dikhta hain na uske piche pad ke ya toh usko khatam kar dete hain unka karriere barbaad kar dete hain unko boycott kar dete hain. Itna ganda PR kar kar ke unko badnaam karte hain (Nothing will happen with them. They are jealous of talent. When they see someone talented, they go after them to destroy their career. They are given terrible PR and are boycotted from the industry).”
