Zoya Akhtar REACTS to Kangana Ranaut’s criticism of her film ‘Gully Boy’

Kangana Ranaut has made some explosive statements after Sushant Singh Rajput’s death. The actress has been at the centre of the nepotism debate and she has taken Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt starrer ‘Gully Boy’s name many times for getting so many awards. Zoya Akhtar hit back at the actress by saying that she is not bothered with criticism.

In an appearance on India Today with her brother Farhan Akhtar and father Javed Akhtar, she opened up that everyone is entitled to their opinion. She also said that she is not bothered by the criticism that comes her way. Talking about Kangana, she said, “She has gone on every platform and basically said that she does not like my work, so I shouldn’t be putting her in that position.”

Further adding that Kangana has bashed ‘Gully Boy’ for receiving so many awards, Zoya said that she is not bothered by it, “Not at all, because I didn’t go for the award ceremonies, for starters, and it’s not important. She herself has boycotted the awards, so I don’t know why she keeps talking about them.”

Talking about the nepotism debate Zoya said, “If I have money, I am putting money on my son, this is nepotism? Then every industry there is nepotism,”  to this Farhan added, “If you are very talented, your talent will find a way to the surface. That is bound to happen.” Zoya continued, “If I am a barber and I have a barber shop, am I going to leave it to my son or am I going to leave it to the best barber in the city? And that’s the bottom line.”
