Alia Bhatt Reacts to Kangana Ranaut's Statement About Bollywood Ignoring Her, Says 'I Wasn't Aware That I Had Upset Her'
Alia Bhatt wants Kangana Ranaut to like her because she respects her immensely.
Kangana Ranaut sure knows how to make headlines. From arguing that Karan Johar is a movie mafia to industry rooting for nepotism and cornering her, she has made some explosive revelations in the past and even in the recent time. The actress believes that Bollywood celebs are quite shameless who invite her for the movie trials but don't reciprocate her sweet gesture. She revealed how popular names like Alia Bhatt once sent her their movie trailers and she appreciated it. But when she invited them for her movie screenings, no one returned the favour and everyone was aloof with her.

While Alia initially didn't react to her accusations, she recently revealed her side of the story in her conversation with the Asian Age. "I didn't follow that controversy at all. I was too busy shooting. I will always support actresses and actors for the films that they do and if they are in any trouble but this is something personal, which I don't think is fair for any of us to get into. Kangana is a strong woman and very outspoken and a fab actress. If she ever needs support, I am sure people will stand up for her but I don't think she gives that feeling that she needs support," she said.
And while there was no hint of an apology earlier, she finally decided to extend an olive branch in her another interaction with the media houses. When she was asked to react about the Queen actress' allegations once again, she said, "I hope she likes me. I don't think I've done anything to upset her. If I have, I will apologise to her. She is very outspoken and it takes very tremendous courage to be like that. I wasn't aware I had upset her." Hopefully, Kangana will take the efforts from her end to meet Alia mid-way.

The entire discussion about Bollywood ignoring Kangana started when the actress in an interview for Manikarnika revealed how the actresses in the industry are very petty. "These girls send me their trailers like Alia (Bhatt) sent me the trailer of Raazi and said, 'Please watch it'. For me, it was not a Karan Johar film or Alia film, for me, it was a film on Sehmat Khan, the girl who has given her everything to the country. How do these people become so petty? This is a very strange sort of a racket. I don't know what they are threatened by," said the 31-year-old artist. Is she telling the truth, we don't know. But since the Raazi actress has reacted and revealed that her ignorance was unintentional, we guess it's time for Kangana to take a chill pill.
