Was being pushed into a corner": Priyanka on her exit from Bollywood - Page 11

Totally well said. We all know how Sanjay faced nothing but Zeenat lost her looks and career.

Parveen was isolated and proven mad. Men have tightly knit coterie and get favours from media too. Men have bro code and each other's back as Kabir Bedi or Mahesh Bhatt, all repeat same line of Parveen being mentally unstable even as she is no more to give her side of story.

Raveena spoke recently in a podcast how editors slander heroines and favour men.

Industry women also face bias and for outsiders it is worse.

Somy, Saba, Tanushree etc have exposed industry many times. Roopa Ganguly once spoke how actresses are treated like prostitutes and so called managers even bark they fixed time, rate and date for them for a client. She broke down when she spoke her story.

I now see young boys also share stories of abuse and sexual advances in BW and fashion industry.

Gauri is a badass for not giving the man and his other woman the satisfaction of being together while she probably had to lose everything.

I honestly felt PC dumped BW and ran to HW the minute she landed an audition there..and frankly what is she doing even over there, none of her performances have landed and her acting feels super fake unlike in BW movies where she got to do range of roles and display her versatility..lol at her talking about being ganged up on..she even came to KJo's show post marriage with Nick Jiju..and yeah there was bad blood when she dated SRK..but someone like KJo who is super close to Gauri is likely to support her? as much as we hate KJo..can you blame him for taking sides in this case?

She was at the top of her game in BW when she left..not down and out like Preity Zinta etc..

I hate it when the ones who literally owe their name and fame to BW and their fans in India go outside and bitch it out..

She ruined that bay watch movie 😂

Recently, I read about Raj Babbar and how his wife took him back after he married Smita and even got a kid because she felt bad for him and wanted her kids to have a father. Same with Mithun's wife when he was caught by media to checkin a hotel with Sri Devi.

I sometimes get why these wives accept their husbands back but then, they go on to blame only the women for being bad and a home wrecker but then most of these actresses don't do it for love but rather for opportunities.

Both are equally to blame and the entire industry is just a sham.

So well said. Why can people not speak out eh?

BW did not do favours giving them anything. It took a lot more from them too, than what it gave.

Manoj Bajpai once said how big city like Mumbai takes away lot more than what it gives and he kept it cryptic, after SSR's suicide when he was asked for a reaction.

Why should PC, Kangana or anyone else not speak? Aamir was also right when he spoke against award shows, media and useless work culture of BW in 90s and openly called even Yash Chopra a liar.

What is thankless or complaining here?

I rather welcome ones who speak out and call out bullshit than ones who keep smiling face and pretend BW is a family or all is well.

We should call out shit no matter where it happens. This ghar ki baat ghar mein rakho, you are thankless, you play victim etc just irks me, as a lame excuse.

The thing about Kangana is

Considering she’s fired people off sets and harassed them and took credit for some of their work. An was actually the highest paid person on Rangoon

I just don’t understand who has oppressed her if she was able

To do all that ^

Standard desi mentality. Ghar ki baat ghar me hi rehne do na? Kyon naam badnaam kar rahe ho? By that logic, Me Too movement should never have happened hai na? All those ungrateful women who spoke up against the amazing Bollywood industry should have shut up. In the process, international media outlets like the BBC did kachra of our precious Bollywood.

And with regards to PC ditching Bollywood for Hollywood, I promise you every single Bollywood actor is doing the same. They are literally begging for roles in HW from the guys at CAA, WM etc.

she could have said this in plenty of interviews in India as well..wonder why she never mentioned in once in 5 years in any of her interviews in India?

if the actors are Begging for HW movies, I think Indian film industry is making far better content than the superhero and animation obsessed HW..so IDC what they are thinking

PC obsession with SRK was really, She is still in pain. She wanted to be SRK's second wife, but didn't success. Poor her. Though I completely understand her being still mad. Had she succeed she could have been at top of the world.

Those days they are taught pati is parameshwar no matter what they do even beat u up you have to live & stay with them till death do u apart and than this brainwashing you have kids how will your kids stay w/o his father than come the biggest excuse and reason that is to what will the world society & families will say of a women divorcing and all these taught by the parents and those days they never go against their parents or fight for the rights & wrongs. These happens even in common families even now but now womens are bold and they are working they know how to take care of themselves and their kids they are no more into this forced and compromised situation to live in a loveless & abusive marriage. Divorce is a stigma for a women those days and also they were more concern of their reputation luxuries status than daughters lives when something bad happened to their daughters than these people regrets. I have seen this all my life its in every family and celebs its like daily affair. Just look how many breakfree from their cheating hubbies & abusive hubbies in BW. If u count its only less in count who free themselves. Most of them took the suicide mode and some rather live with it for various reaso. There are many cases in both common and celebs went unreported

If u guys see the netflix crime documentaries of america famous serial killers they target the women furthermore the way they see women as a sex object whom they control & take possession

Kangana is someone who has mirrored same behaviour as was meted out to her.

Many times you end up becoming what you resist or what you hated in others or what you suffered at hands of others. Like Kangana mostly employing her own siblings in own production house and not hiring outsiders is also nepotism.
