    Kangana Ranaut Isn’t Pleased With Celebs Reacting To Black Lives Matter, Blames It On Their ‘Colonial Slavery Genes’

    Kangana Ranaut has been known in Bollywood as the actress who is never been shy from talking what’s on her mind. In fact, she has courted controversy more often than not for what she has spoken about. Right from bringing the focus on Nepotism in Bollywood to pointing fingers at members of the industry and in media, she has always been blunt. Now, as most Bollywood celebs are reacting to the Black Lives Matter movement, Kangana isn’t pleased with it. She even claimed that these celebs are jumping into a bandwagon and blamed it on their ‘pre-independence colonial slavery genes’.

    Talking to Pinkvilla, she said, “The Sadhu lynching happened a couple of weeks ago; still no one said a word. It happened in Maharashtra where most of these celebrities reside… It is a shame they [Bollywood celebrities] continue to live in a bubble and never fail to jump on the bandwagon, which can give them two minutes of fame, but ‘white people’ must drive the bandwagon. Perhaps, it is because of their pre-independence colonial slavery genes.” 

    She continued and said, “Even for environmental issues, you see them fight for a white teenage kid but so many incredible elderly women and even children are doing exceptionally well in India on environmental matters without any help or support. I was amazed to see their stories, but they never get the same acknowledgement from the industry. Perhaps, sadhus or tribal people aren’t fancy enough for the Bollywood crowd or their followers.”
