Gunjan Saxena: Angad Bedi Feels The Flak The Film Is Receiving Is 'Unfair', Says 'It's My Film Too'

Gunjan Saxena is all set for premiere on 12th August and the trailer of the film released a few days back. Ever since, it has been caught up in the nepotism debate that has been raging a storm in Bollywood. People dismissed the film, mainly because it had Janhvi Kapoor in the titular role, and the film has received a lot of negative comments on social media. Now Angad Bedi, who is also a part of the film and plays the character of Gunjan's brother opened up about it.

Calling the flak the film is receiving 'unfair', he told Mid Day, "It's my film, too, and added, "Everyone has a right to their opinion, but people are spitting fire against one another. The flak is unfair. Every industry is competitive. I have auditioned for over 300 movies, and every rejection has been a learning experience. My role in Soorma led me to this film. I had gone to meet Shashank, who, in turn, made me meet Sharan. After I tested for the role, Sharan told Karan he wanted me for the part. There are lakhs of people in the industry, so it's only fair that we all get a chance. Actors are like any other professional who work for a paycheque."

He further told the daily, "I have made my career here, I make money from it to look after my family and in so many years, I have not had one bad producer. Of course, that’s my own trajectory and journey which is independent of someone else’s experience. I did Ungli, years ago, with him. There are lacs of people in the industry so it’s only fair that we all stand a fair chance."
