Kangana Ranaut on going Hollywood: It would be stupid for anyone to move to West now

Well, even though it’s quite a tricky situation down West, courtesy President Donald Trump, the charm of Hollywood still remains intact. Priyanka Chopra is already making her presence felt there with her Television series ‘Quantico’ and upcoming Hollywood debut film ‘Baywatch’. Deepika Padukone too made a smashing entry in the world of Hollywood recently with her film ‘xXx: Return of Xander Cage’. But, our Bollywood’s ‘Queen’, Kangana Ranaut, holds different thoughts over going to Hollywood. She feels that it is not the right time to go International because as per her their theatre business is crashing.

She says, “It would be stupid for anyone to make the move to the West now. Their theatre business is crashing because of the influx of digital media. Asia, on the other hand, is where Hollywood was 15 years ago. It is a lucrative time for entertainment here. These are baits that I won’t fall prey to.”

She further adds, “If an American film is doing Rs 100 crore business and not all our films are able to, we may not find adequate screens for home-bred films 10 years down the line. I’m all for world cinema, but it needs to be a film that brings employment and money into our country. I don’t wish to offer myself on a platter to another industry.” (Also Check: ‘Rangoon’: Kangana Ranaut and Shahid Kapoor explore limitless love in ‘Ye Ishq Hai’)

Indeed, a strong and calculative opinion! But anyway, as of now we are happy that Kangana would be entertaining us with her next Bollywood film ‘Rangoon’ that makes it to the theatres on February 24, 2017.
