There are always people who believe one thing and some who believe the opposite, and they judge according to how they personally would act. They do not look at facts nor at logic. If they dislike HR they will blame him, in fact I think some people are so obsessed with him that they even bring him up in posts that have absolutely nothing to do with him. Just like kangana who cannot move on from HR, who completely ignores her existence, somewhere inside her twisted head she still has the hope that if she becomes the best at everything he will one day return some affection and so do some fans.
(but that is a whole new chapter: Is Erotomania contagious?).
The reality is stark in contrast, because I would be willing to bet a large amount that just like there WAS NEVER any attraction, affair nor one night stand. In the future there will not be one either, before she was just a co-worker a mealy mouse, kind of frumpy looking girl who had a couple parts in his films, parts that seem to fit her, because in both she played deranged or twisted individuals with an obsession for the hero. Now she is not even playing a part, she IS deranged.
He stated that she showed up to work well prepared etc.. no reason to discount her work and during movie shoots, behind the scenes life goes on, people have birthdays, celebrations, promotion events and the whole cast participates, it was NEVER what kangana claims, there are witnesses. He at first believed that there was an impostor or douche bag taking advantage of her, he tried to assist his co-worker to stop him, but slowly it became quite clear that there was no impostor and that the lady and her sister had an agenda.
Even before the public at large heard from her about the "affair" she had started a campaign all over Bollywood, she went everywhere and confided that she was having this affair, she told everyone, people in Bollywood stayed quiet, watching because no one interferes in others personal issues, he patiently started to explain to all who did approach him that it was not true, a lot of them believed him some not so much, after all a man loses nothing by sleeping with a willing woman a couple times and then tossing her. BUT kangana was not happy she wanted to force the issue and was sure that if she put pressure on him, he would relent, she called his father, his friends and elders in the industry and finance world to complain that he had promised her marriage, thinking all these people would believe the love sick poor girl vs the cad hero. (he fits the role too, because there is not one angle you can look at him and think: Victim) a lot went on behind the scenes that the public did not see, because people started to notice that he was being harassed by her, the things she told one or the other did not make sense, nor when they compared what she said was it always the same story, people started to remember what had happened at what party etc.. so they distanced themselves from her and him who told them to just back away from the sordid mess believing it would get sorted out. When forcing him behind the scenes failed kangana wanted a media explosion, So she started bleating in front of the cameras. Media people are hungry, so they took advantage.
He was way too nice and kind. He did not know then he was dealing with a psychotic woman, she made his life hell, his well earned reputation was maligned, his father was trashed, she threatened to harm him, she thrashed his ex-wife-her family and she did the same to his children, so he had NO CHOICE but to react. Like I said he was too nice, he was advised to file charges and a restraining order, he dragged his feet...nice people do that. I would have come out all barrels ablaze and kangana would have been forced t o stop, BUT he had no intention of taking up a fight or harming her, he just wanted her to leave him and his family alone, so he took the damage, took the ugly rumors, took the insults by no bodies on social media, took the complacency of the media hacks who encouraged an ever more emboldened kangana, who talked and talked, making up bigger and better lies. He took the destroy campaign against his work, and even changed his film Super 30 so as not to clash with her and her flop, even though she delayed her own movie just for the purpose of clashing with him. He took it all in stride, she mocked him, she mocked his work, she mocked his finger, she mocked his head injury, she mocked his fathers cancer, she mocked everything she could and as desperation set in, she hounded his friends, his family, the public, his businesses, she used his ill sister in a way that any woman union or law system should condemn!
All this and more he took, continued his work, continued to deal with private life, the illness of his dad, his sister, the death of his grandfather and the disloyalty of those whom he called "friends of a life time", who turned out to be in fact just people harboring jealousy in their hearts who wanted to see him fall.
He said leave it up to time, justice sometimes is slow. Those who ridiculed him had issues because he did not talk, or come out like her to make a circus, they would have all forgiven him and given him a round of applause if he had just said "yes I took her for a toss in the hay" they would have patted his back and said good man! you did what any man would do, lets all make a movie.
BUT he is a gentleman, a peaceful one, a very determined one, and a man like that will never just bend his principles. HE NEVER HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH HER (she repulsed him-me too) was his one battle cry. Bravo HR! GOD keep you safe.
Now years later he, has continued whatever plans he had, not even pausing to give her a second thought. Probably glad if any storm wind carries her far off into a mountainous abyss...
She got upset and started the nepo campaign when KJo and the rest did not take her side and opted to be sidelined, they did not take his side but Bollywood quietly ignored her. That is the source of all her bitterness.
Her films have all flopped, because after the 4th 5th 6th 7th and on lies, the normal public started to get wise, if you have a problem with everyone, chances are the problem is you. She has been accused of all kinds of corrupt behavior, she preaches out of both sides of her mouth, against the drugs she once enjoyed and when she can she jumps to work with those she tried to expose and destroy! She is a collection of dregs and Tabaco swill at the bottom of a spit bucket .
She and her loony fans are still stuck on the Phantasy, she has had issues with everyone, she hates others in the industry, any woman who is a potential rival becomes a target, dead people are good for PR, hatred campaigns will at least get you some fans, others work is hers for the taking. So we wait and watch and enjoy, firm believers in the school of : time is a great equalizer and she will get caught up in her web since.......lies are her truth.
