I remember kangana praising pink quite a bit in one of the mindrocks seminar, and she also texted one of the actresses really praising her and there was one article about it. It doesn't matter if kangana doesn't want to go around praising her contemporaries openly, it's better not to say anything than be fake about it. And it's great of vidhya to be openly appreciating of her colleagues, but everybody's personalities are different, we can't expect them all to react the same. And I have not seen kangana put down actresses actively, besides maybe her feud with deepika, which was all fume and no substance.

Thank You.. Even there, her words got twisted by the media to bring the rivalry between DP and Kangy. The latter also went to Piku screening to support DP. They may not get along with each other and they don't have to... but doesn't mean she hates the other actresses.

She has gone on record to praise others. I have video proofs if people want to go down that route.

She is an ardent admirer of Vidya...

I am trying to scratch my head as to which other actress has been a Kangana victim, like DP has. 😛

Please refresh my memory.

I wouldn't call it fluke. Those films were also good and the combined impact was what gave her a dream run awhile back.

Even in the releases since then, she wasn't bad in them... it was just that the movies were bad. No one had issues with her performances.

There are very few actresses remaining in the industry today who can rise above the banal script and sometime be the only saving grace of the otherwise atrocious movie. Vidya is definitely one of them. Yes, Kadso and Kangana belong in the same group too...

You can tell who is an ACTRESS and who is MASQUERADING as an actress. We both know of some well "packaged actress" examples here... why open our mouths and rile up a few fandoms. 😉

It is not easy for ladies out there to carve a respectable career in Bollywood, without falling back on "shortcut" camp/actors success path.

LMAO. 🤣 I stil say Vidya is extremely talented but she got lucky. Kahaani 2 is a crucial test for her. If it fails then i doubt anyone would give her more chances. She is not from a specific camp or has a famous last name so the chances being doled out to her are limited. For Sonam's sake i hope Kahaani 2 doesn't work because this is Sonam's last chance to get an award and Vidya has had her share and it wouldn't matter much for her if she doesn't get another award.

I think Alia would be a tough competition to Sonam though😆

Me too hope it works for her and she breaks that cycle of actresses can't be successful if they are married and certain age😊

Let me assure you:

Regardless of the fate of Kahaani 2, Sonam will do a clean sweep victory at the COMMERCIAL awards this year. Black Lady will go to her too (popular or critics). They have so many categories to fit ... she won't go empty handed. NA very unlikely.. if K2 gets critical acclaim.

Vidya will NOT win the main awards like she did a few years ago. Critics more likely or she may have to contend being the Sridevi of 2012 (give the best performance but sit at home). Such is the life... I doubt Vidya cares for more trophies though. 😆 She has plenty at home .

Sonam and Alia will get more trophies... awards friendly and TRP baits. Vidya / Taapsee may pick something here and there in special categories.

Everyone is different. But picking a fight on an actress just because she dedicated an award to you? that seems a bit too much. Don't praise and don't be fake but don't put down someone who dedicated an award to you. She wants to pull down one actress because she thinks she can be on top by doing that. Vidya is doing it with grace and that's how I see it. I personally like people who are humble with their success

Ah... You're bringing up that old matter up. Sure, a gracious person would accept it and move on. But then again, kangana had struggled quite a bit, 7 to 8 years to be exact, in this industry before that one success, namely queen, so she has let go of all that generally accepted virtues of graciousness, humbleness, etc. etc. on the way. After such struggle, there is bound to be cynicism, and that cynicism does lead her a lot of times and differentiate her responses to situations compared to alot of other actresses. So, I agree that she could have handled the matter differently, but besides that one thing, I really don't see her bringing other actresses down. She minds her own business most of the times, and praises when she feel like it. I know she regularly praises sonam and her sister in terms of fashion, and she definitely has alot of good wills toward vidhya and priyanka. So, really, there is no need for her to put on a show of graciousness. I think I appreciate that frankness about her besides her talent and fashion sense of course. She is what she is, flawed and all. After all, we all can't perfect after all and it's better own up to it at times. 😆

We can agree to disagree😊😊

But I have to say about the awards, everyone that attends gets an award. One gets Romantic award, best actress in comedy, best in drama😆 you name it, they all got it

Whether her success was fluke or not but wht she did was quite remarkable...delivering great performances and hits without stars and big producers and with new directors...

Kangana is being brought in but I can't remember one instance when kangana talked bad about any actress except after she got pissed when Deepika congratulated her in.public but not personally by SMS or phonewhen deepika won a popular award for CE as opposed to Kangs for Queen and TWM 2.

I think because Deepika was already known to hv an overactive PR going all out to get her the awards and films. It's good because now actresses won't do OTT publicity. I think Deepika was genuinely being honest then but it backfired because of her famous PR team and their OTT rep.

Coming to the interview of Vidya..such a perfect example.of being honest but not malicious or rude and bringing in people's ages, or dissing people for not taking her in their films. She gets her point across perfectly without bashing anyone else.

About the weight Mahesh was only talking truth, one can see weight and underweight getting bashed here on forum..its a visual medium and dieting to lose a few kilos here n there for a multi core film is not really a sin for producers to ask..asking women to take pills to increase bust size or do lipo or become 35 kilos from 58 is not ethical.
