Kangana : Gender-bias & Groupism is not good

Kangana Ranaut’s Thalaivii – the biopic of Jayalalithaa is releasing on September 10th in Telugu, Tamil, and Hindi. The trailer of the film which released previously has become a super success and increased the hype and expectations on the movie.

On this occasion, Kangana revealed the hard work she has done to portray the role to perfection. “I do not know much about Jaya Amma before doing the film. It is very difficult to make a film on her because Tamil people know about everything in her life. So, there is no chance of cinematic liberties. I tried to get into her shoes to decide why she took a decision at a particular time,” the actress explains.

“Jayalalithaa is a great Bharata Natyam dancer. She even gave many performances. So, I learned the dance for the movie. It is not easy to play her because she looks different in four phases of her life. Decreasing and increasing weight for the same film is not easy. AL Vijay is a talented director and has extreme clarity about what he is doing. Producers should be appreciated for holding the movie despite getting several fancy offers from OTT,” she said.

She also expressed her disappointment about Multiplex Association which is refusing to screen the film in Hindi. “On one side, we are trying to help the theaters survive. They should behave responsibly. They allowed Radhe simultaneous release. It looks like they are being partial here. Gender-bias and groupism is not good for the industry,” the actress fired.

Kangana has got National awards four times but she says she can not say about getting another for Thalaivii. “I got four National Awards. Two of them under Congress rule and two in BJP’s rule. So, there is no chance of criticism. It is not fair to say I will win the award for this movie. I have given my best but there can be even better performances from others as well,” she modestly said.
