Ranbir's Kapoor's statement , bollywood hungama article
In stark contrast, his son, actor Ranbir Kapoor, is miles away from such kind of engagement. Firstly, he's not on any social media website. Fans and moviegoers get a chance to hear him only when his films are about to come up. Otherwise, he's away from the entire media glare, happily working on his films. And whenever he faces the media and gives interviews, he makes sure he never talks about any political stuff.
In a recent interview to Mid-Day editor Mayank Shekhar, Ranbir Kapoor was asked why he shies away from making political statements. The actor's answer has been quite surprising and even amusing. He said that he doesn't follow politics since it makes no difference to his life. He added that since he's living a luxurious life and has complete access to basic needs like water, housing, electricity etc., he is fairly satisfied. Hence, he feels that it's unfair to comment on politics!
Such a statement from Ranbir Kapoor is sure to get praises and some flak too. Those who feel actors should not comment on political issues would surely welcome such a quote from the actor. But those who feel that the actors should talk about various issues since they also belong to the same society and country would surely be disheartened!
