The 'no holds barred'interview of Kangana Ranaut has exposed the entire Bollywood and its vendetta politics. Bollywood ace actress Kangana Ranaut made some sensational claims in the interview with Republic TV.
Remember Sushant's movie 'Drive' which was released on the NetFlix? As per Producer Karan Johar, the movie was supposed to release in theaters however, no theaters were interested to buy the movie, therefore, the movie was dropped at Netflix.
Now, Kangana Ranaut has clarified what the actual version was. In an interview with Republic, Kangana Ranaut alleged that Karan Johar declared Sushant Singh Rajput to be a ‘flop star’ and ensured that Drive was never released in theaters. She claimed that Karan was fulfilling the agenda of his ‘childhood friend’, Aditya Chopra, to destroy Sushant’s career.
As per Kangana, Aditya signed Sushant under the Yash Raj Films talent agency and made him sign an ‘evil’ contract that did not allow him to take up any projects without their consent. She claimed that Aditya did not allow Sushant to be a part of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela and Bajirao Mastani and made sure that Ranveer Singh got the films instead.
Sanjay Leela Bhansali in the question by Mumbai Police gave a similar kind of statement. Bhansali in his statement said that Sushant was under contract with Yash Raj Films therefore he could not sign his movies. The actress also said that when Yash Raj Films pulled out of Shekhar Kapur’s Paani, Sushant broke all ties with the production house. “Then they had a big showdown and Aditya Chopra told him, ‘We will never work with you.’”
Kangana went on to claim that Karan, Aditya’s childhood friend, stepped in to sabotage Sushant’s career by signing him for Drive but ensuring that the film doesn’t release in theatres and instead comes out on Netflix.
“Now, Aditya doesn’t work with him but his best friend, his childhood friend, Karan Johar comes into the picture. Very strategically, he hires him and shoots for this film for three years, and then he declares to the world that he is such a flop star, I can’t sell the film to exhibitors,” Kangana said, questioning why Karan could not find buyers for Drive, even after Sushant delivered a blockbuster like MS Dhoni: The Untold Story. “Let’s have a conversation with exhibitors and producers. I want to know the business and financial mathematics,” she added.
A YouTuber named 'Ujjwal Trivedi' has explained the mathematics and exposed Karan Johar totally. Ujjwal explained how any theater buys a movie. When a movie is made then the distributors approach movie theaters. Like on Eid and Diwali only Khan's movie gets released the theaters don't release any other movies.
Ujjwal explained how the movie earns from theaters. In the first week of release, 25% of bookings go to theater owners while the remaining goes to the film distributors. Therefore the ratio keeps changing with time. Theater and multiplex owners wait for the movies big Bollywood producers like Ekta Kapoor, Aditya Chopra, and Karan Johar.
Ujjwal questioned on what ground multiplex owner rejected the movie 'Drive'? Won't release Sushant's movie who recently gave a big hit like MS Dhoni? Or won't release Dharma Production movie which earns well on box-office? Or due to the Director Tarun Mansukhani whose earlier movie was Dostana?
All the claims of Kangana have been seen to connect and her claims seem to be true. Producer Aditya Chopra has been interrogated by Mumbai Police, however, Karan Johar hasn't been summoned.
