Bollywood actress and director Kangana Ranaut, who never hesitates to express fearless opinions, has now reacted to one fan’s suggestion that her recent political drama Emergency should be India’s official Academy Awards entry. But Kangana made it loud and clear that she doesn’t care about Hollywood’s approval.
Here’s What Happened
Following the OTT release of Emergency, the film has been receiving praise from viewers and critics alike. A fan took to social media to appreciate the movie, tweeting,“#EmergencyOnNetflix should go for the Oscars from India. @KanganaTeam what a film!”
Kangana responded,“But America wouldn’t like to acknowledge its real face—how they bully, suppress, and arm-twist developing nations. It’s been exposed in #Emergency. They can keep their silly Oscar, we have National Awards.”
About Emergency
