Bollywood actor and BJP MP Kangana Ranaut has expressed her thoughts on the Kapoor family’s recent meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The Kapoor family, including Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Kareena Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan, Neetu Kapoor, and Riddhima Sahni, met with PM Modi on December 10 to invite him to the Raj Kapoor Film Festival, organized to celebrate the legendary actor-filmmaker’s 100th birth anniversary2.

Speaking at the Agenda Aaj Tak event, Kangana welcomed the initiative and expressed her support for PM Modi’s engagement with the film industry. However, she also highlighted the challenges faced by the industry, stating that it lacks direction and needs proper guidance. “I think our film industry needs guidance. This is soft power and it is underutilized. Today, be it PM Modi or our other guides or Information Broadcast Ministry or other programs, I have also been a part of the industry for 20 years. I think this industry is completely orphaned. Because they do not have guidance. Whether it is Jihadi agenda or Palestinian agenda, anyone can capture them. They have no guidance at all, they do not know where to go,” Kangana said2.

Kangana emphasized that individuals in the film industry are often vulnerable and easily lured into questionable activities, which can tarnish their reputation. “They gave them some money and made them do anything anywhere. Dawood takes them to his parties. They often become targets of hawala and drugs. They are very vulnerable. They are given responsibilities. They are allowed to meet. They also feel that yes, we meet the Prime Minister. He looks after our work. He thinks about us. Such things don’t happen there. They feel that they can do anything. They will go and dance at gangsters’ parties. They feel that no one is watching them,” she added2.
Kangana also expressed her desire to meet PM Modi, stating that she has requested an audience with him. “It is a very good step that they are looking at the mainstream. We do not get the same treatment as other industries. We make so many films, generate so much revenue. To be factual, yes, I have requested to meet PM Modi ji. I hope one day he will call me and I will meet him,” she said2.
The Kapoor family’s meeting with PM Modi has sparked a conversation about the film industry’s need for proper guidance and support. As one of the most influential industries in India, Bollywood plays a significant role in shaping public opinion and cultural narratives. Kangana’s comments highlight the importance of providing the industry with the necessary support and direction to ensure its growth and success.
As the Raj Kapoor Film Festival approaches, fans and industry insiders alike are eagerly awaiting the event, which promises to be a grand celebration of the legendary actor-filmmaker’s legacy. The festival will feature screenings of Raj Kapoor’s iconic films, panel discussions, and special performances, making it a fitting tribute to one of Bollywood’s most beloved figures.
