Kangana Ranaut Praises Aditya Dhar After Dhurandhar 2 Success
On Saturday, March 21, Kangana Ranaut shared a note on Instagram Stories and congratulated Aditya Dhar. She called him a “superstar director” and said filmmakers often do not get enough respect in the industry.
She wrote, “The best thing about Dhurandhar success is that Aditya Dhar is a superstar director is established, Hollywood superstar directors are always bigger than superstar actors. Eg: Spielberg, Tarantino, Nolan. We never give our film-makers enough respect or credit. They are overworked, underpaid and bullied by superstars. As a result, I never meet any young person, insider/ outsider, who dreams of becoming a film-maker or director of photography or any other technician.”
Kangana added that many people say they are talented, but most only want to become actors. She said Aditya Dhar’s success will inspire youngsters to look at filmmaking as a serious career.
She ended her note by writing, “Salutations sir @adityadharfilms.”
