Alia Bhatt reacts to Kangana Ranaut’s comment on ‘Gangubai Kathiawadi’ with reference from Bhagavad Gita: ‘Inaction is in action’ – Times of India

During the launch event, Alia Bhatt was asked to comment on Kangana Ranaut’s recent Instagram post where she criticised ‘Gangubai Kathiawadi’ and said “This Friday 200cr will be burnt to ashes at the box office”. On this, Alia simply responded with a quote from the Bhagavad Gita.

“Lord Krishna had said in the Gita that inaction is in action. That’s all I want to say,” the 28-year-old actor said.

Earlier Kangana had shared on Instagram, “This Friday 200cr will be burnt to ashes at the box office … for a papa (movie mafia daddy) ki pari (who likes to keep a British passport) because papa wants to prove that romcom bimbo can act… biggest drawback of the film is wrong casting…yeh nahi sudhrenge (these people won’t change) no wonder screens are going to South and Hollywood films … Bollywood is destined for doom jab tak movie mafia has power.”

“Bollywood mafia daddy papa Jo who has single-handedly ruined the work culture in the film industry has emotionally manipulated many big directors and forced his products of mediocrity on their cinematic brilliance, another example will be following soon after this release… people need to stop entertaining him, in this Friday release even a big hero and greatest director are the new victims of his manipulations,” she added in another post. Apart from this, Kangana had also launched an attack on a viral video of a little girl recreating Alia Bhatt’s dialogue from the film.

Coming back to the film, Alia also opened up about the pressure to satisfy the audience and do well at the box office. She said, “The pressure is inherent. While I’m making the film I prefer not to think about the pressure because I feel that will come in the way of my creative process. Maybe I’ll try to play to the gallery. (But that) will be inauthentic for the character.”

Besides Alia Bhatt in the lead, ‘Gangubai Kathiawadi’ also starring Ajay Devgn, Vijay Raaz, Seema Pahwa and Shantanu Maheshwari in key roles. It is slated to be released this Friday.
