Kangana Ranaut has reacted  to the news of Malayalam film, Jallikattu being sent as India’s official entry to Oscars next year. Taking to her Twitter handle, the Tanu Weds Manu star congratulated the film Jallikattu for making it as an official entry at Oscars 2021. However, with congratulations, she also took a dig at the movie mafia gang and mentioned that Indian cinema is not just about 4 families. She tweeted, "All the scrutiny/ bashing  Bullydawood gang got is finally yielding some results, Indian films aren’t just about 4 film families, movie mafia gang is hiding in their houses and letting juries do their job and congratulations team #Jallikattu."

 

In September, Kangana came out in support of the regional film industries and called the perception of the Hindi film industry being India’s most superior film industry ‘wrong’. Jallikattu, directed by Lijo Jose Pellissery, is based on a short story written by Hareesh titled Maoist. The film, which stars Antony Varghese, Chemban Vinod Jose, Sabumon Abdusamad and Santhy Balachandran, was chosen from 27 entries across different languages. Talking about Kangana’s work front, the actress has some interesting projects in her kitty. She will be seen in political biopic Thalaivi. Besides this, she also has an intense action drama titled Dhaakad and Tejas lined up.
