Kangana Ranaut has offered her perspective on why the recent trend of South Indian films outperform their Bollywood counterparts at the box office.
According to the actor, the disparity lies in the fact that many Hindi films become increasingly disconnected from reality.
During a session at Agenda Aaj Tak, Kangana compared the massive success of Allu Arjun’s Pushpa franchise to the business situation in Bollywood.
She said, “I don’t think Bollywood can be dubbed as mainstream. They are not mainstream by any standard. Our films should be defined as the Indian film industry, one industry in which every type of audience is addressed.”
Ranaut continued, “People in Bollywood live in a bubble. And that is one of the biggest reasons I have a problem with them.”
“They want six pack abs, hot babe, beaches, bike and item numbers. That’s enough for them) ... It is important to have a reality check,” the star further added.
On the work front, Kangana Ranaut is awaiting the release of her directorial debut Emergency.
