Beside, she brought it on herself by saying she is the hero of movie (who traditionally gets brunt of failure. Why Bombay Velvet affected RK so much) and then saying the movie was failure because her shots were cut. The first thing you do when movie is flop is say it hurts because we worked hard. Take responsibilities of flop and move on. Don't stop to analyze at that point. Shahid had distanced himself from movie even before it released, so his statement had 0 impact. Saif was never considered important for movie.
Second golden rule is - Never call anyone names unless you are superstar. Statement such as Nepotism crack made her media darling and brought her fans and detractor. She should be ready to be trolled when her movie flops and nepotism Ke deepak "alia and varun" succeed. It is very normal. I don't get this rebel without cause attitude of hers. Bollywood is industry where people work.😛 😆
You are mixing things here. She said she was surprised people were raving about her work (when her top notch scenes according to her were cut... I know because some of the scenes she talked about in IV didn't even make it to the final edit 😭 ) and NOT that the FILM IS A FAILURE COZ MY SCENES WERE CUT. Big difference there. 😛
Her Masand's interview was 2 weeks after the release where she accepted the failure hurt and didn't know how she could have changed the outcome from her contributions. She mentioned the need to grow and move on. 😉
So she is not far off from your recommended next steps.
Lastly, she always went around with "3 heroes". People didn't like she when called herself a "hero" 🤓. In the end, the so called "heroes" couldn't help her at all.
Thus she is better off working on her own woman centric films as she will be certainly held accountable for FAILURE but be considered "part of a great team" when the film in a success! 😆
