Ranbir Kapoor Breaks Silence On ‘Boycott Bollywood’ & B Town Vs. South Indian films debate
Ranbir Kapoor, one of the leading actors in Bollywood, recently broke his silence on the ongoing debates about “Boycott Bollywood” and the “South vs. Hindi” issue. The actor was attending an event in Mumbai when he was asked about these issues, and his response has been making headlines. Ranbir Kapoor, known for his witty sense of humor, responded by saying, “Aapko film nahi dekhni mat dekho na…mere paet pe laat maar rahe ho (If you don’t want to watch films, don’t watch them. Why are you kicking me in the stomach?)”.
His comment was met with laughter from the audience, but it also addressed the serious issue of the recent calls for boycotting Bollywood and the alleged favoritism towards Hindi-speaking actors over those from the South. The “Boycott Bollywood” movement gained traction last year after the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput, with many people blaming nepotism and favoritism for his untimely demise. The movement has also been fueled by the ongoing debate about the lack of opportunities for South Indian actors in Bollywood.
In his response, Ranbir Kapoor seems to be suggesting that if people do not want to watch Bollywood films, they should simply not watch them, rather than attacking actors or the industry as a whole. He also seems to be acknowledging the issue of alleged discrimination against South Indian actors in Bollywood, which has been a topic of discussion in recent times.
Ranbir Kapoor’s response has been praised by many on social media, with fans and industry insiders commending him for his wit and for addressing the issues in a balanced and measured manner. His comments also highlight the need for constructive dialogue and a more nuanced understanding of the challenges facing the film industry. His recent comments on these debates have shed light on important issues facing the film industry today. It is important for all stakeholders to engage in constructive dialogue and work towards creating a more inclusive and equitable film industry.
