On Friday, Kareena Kapoor in a discussion with journalist Barkha Dutt opened up about her feeling regarding anti-Bollywood sentiments.
After Bollywood actorâs Sushant Singh Rajputâs demise, the issues of drug nexus and nepotism in the film industry have been highlighted.
However, Saif Ali Khanâs wife finds the negativity heartbreaking as the same industry has fulfilled many peopleâs dreams.
Barkha asked the 40-year-old if Bollywood paid price for not voicing for itself on various matters previously. âWhether you say or donât, the industry is anyway becoming the softest target. If you say something, youâll get brickbats. If you donât, youâll get it too. If actors donât want to speak up, itâs understandable because look at the kind of trolling thatâs happening and for no reasonâ Kapoor responded.
âTheyâre spreading hatred and negativity into an industry thatâs for entertainment. We are here to entertain our fans. We are not here to spread hate and negativity,â Heroine star added.
âI donât know why there is now this perception of the film industry. Itâs heartbreaking because itâs not like that. There are so many dreams made here. Look at the kind of people who have come here and built their homes, dreams and legacies,â she further added.
âWhen Prithviraj Kapoor or Raj Kapoor came, they were nobodies. From a simple family in Lahore, they built their entire legacy here. We have also come from somewhere and done this. Here dreams are fulfilled. Why are we trying to bring down industry, actors, producers and filmmakers? Saying so-and-so is like this or like that. Why? I feel this has to stop. Talking about it, fuels it. People are just commenting without understanding what a particular person is going through,â Kareena concluded.
