A Candid Review on Bollywood Stars
The actress, who has always regarded herself as an outsider in Bollywood, accused its stars of being “selfish to the core,” “arrogant beyond measure” and “completely clueless.” Kangana does not fit into the typical mould of a Bollywoodian starlet; therefore, according to her own words: “I am not that kind of person; I will never be friends with any of them!” For her, most people care more about their outside looks than about having meaningful conversations or growing themselves.
Superficiality and Materialism
Further explaining this subject matter during another session later held elsewhere, she seemed frustrated at how materialistic many actors are. “These people can’t talk beyond bags and cars,” she said, emphasizing that such individuals lack depth in life, as portrayed through their obsession with luxury brands like Gucci, Prada, LV, etcetera.
According to Ms Ranaut’s observation, when these stars finish shooting movies all day long without doing anything else productive other than going back home, sleeping, eating, waking up, jogging, then returning home again, sleeping until evening, repeating the same routine over the next few weeks, months, and years until it becomes repetitive, boring, monotonous, blahs, blahs, blahs…blahs.
The fact that if Kangana were not working on a film set, then she would probably find nothing else better things related to career or intellect thing should have been happening around where people think critically, discuss ideas, share knowledge, broaden minds, learn new skills, challenge each other intellectually stimulate personal growth become aware others’ needs work towards common good final goal blahs blahs blahs…blah.
While still at it, I would like to point out that these guys never bother themselves about what is happening around them unless it directly affects their personal lives. As such, there is living proof that, indeed, most people in this industry do not know anything beyond themselves because they live such cocooned lives where everything revolves only around them. Therefore, referring to any global phenomenon becomes impossible for them since it does not exist within the narrow confines of Bollywood.
Differentness in Isolation
In addition, she spoke of her experience being different from other Bollywood actors, which left her feeling lonely. She has continuously talked about how she feels disconnected from everyone else in Bollywood due to what she describes as their shallow way of approaching life. “How can anyone be friends with such people?” Kangana asked rhetorically, implying that no amount of effort will ever bridge the gap between her and those who share similar values or interests with most Indian film stars.
Over time, Ranaut’s statements have consistently reflected deep-seated hatred toward certain aspects surrounding showbiz culture. Nepotism is among the top on the list, followed closely by a lack of recognition shown towards genuine talent and creativity outside established norms, etcetera. However much some may see this.
