Brahmastra Collections, from no where to Rs 160 Cr is arguable by many but for Karan it is not. However, Kangana Ranaut doesn’t hold back while expressing her comments about Karan Johar and his productions. Now, she has intensified her criticism on KJo-supported film “Brahmastra,” starring Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt.
The actress questioned the movie’s box office results and stated that she wanted to speak with producer Karan Johar about why the studio only reported gross earnings rather than net box office receipts of his production Brahmastra.
Kangana Ranaut commenting on Brahmastra Collections calls Kjo as the Movie Mafia
She continued by referring to KJo as the “movie mafia” and asking him to clarify the arithmetic underlying the “Brahmastra” box office figures. “Karan Johar Ji, will you kindly enlighten us? I’m afraid the rules of nature apply differently to the movie mafia than they do to merely mortals like us. Consequently, the mathematics for the privileged people like you and different mathematics for the underprivileged like us…please enlighten us on this,” she added.
“I want to interview Karan Johar and understand why he is declaring a gross collection of Brahmastra and not a net collection? What is desperation? Also after making ₹60 cr (that’s the net collection they have declared, I don’t believe in this number but net amount India is 60 cr for two days according to them). Even if we believe them, how come Rs 650 crore film emerged a hit already,” she wrote on her Instagram stories.
She went on to call KJo ‘movie mafia’ and asked him to explain the maths behind ‘Brahmastra’ box office numbers. “Karan Johar Ji please enlighten us, because I am afraid there are different laws of nature for movie mafia and different ones for mere mortals like us. Hence different mathematics for the privileged people like you and different mathematics for the underprivileged like us…please enlighten us on this,” Ranaut added.
Meanwhile, in another Instagram story, Kangana shared a tweet that cited Brahmastra a ‘hit’ and alleged how her films ‘Manikarnika’ and ‘Thalaivii’ were downplayed at the time of their release.
“This Box Office India handle has been harassing me and many like me because he is on payroll of the mafia…Today he declared Brahmastra a big hit in one day, where according to him it has only earned Rs 65 cr so far. He did a major smear campaign against Manikarnika (cost Rs 75 crore…theatrical revenue Rs 150 crore). He declared it a flop. ‘Thalaivii’ ( Rs 100 crore prerelease recovery) pandemic release…he declared it a disaster,” she wrote.
‘Brahmastra: Part One Shiva’ hit the screens on September 9. Also starring Amitabh Bachchan, Nagarjuna and Mouni Roy in key roles, the film has so far collected Rs 160 crore worldwide at the box office.
