The Kapoor clan visited Prime Minister, Narendra Modi on December 10, 2024. The group included Kareena Kapoor Khan, Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Karisma Kapoor, Neetu Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan, and others. The family travelled to New Delhi to pass a special invitation to the Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, for legendary actor, Raj Kapoor's 100th birth anniversary celebration.
Now, actress-turned-politician, Kangana Ranaut has shared her candid thoughts on their meeting. The actress sat for an unfiltered conversation with Agenda Aaj Tak, where she was asked about her opinion on the Kapoors meeting as the Prime Minister’s engagement with the film industry is an important step. She was also asked about her thoughts on the meeting with the Kapoor family while she had been waiting for an audience with the prime minister.
Kangana, who is known for being outspoken about her thoughts and opinions, shared that she believes that the industry needs extensive guidance. She revealed that she has been a part of the industry for twenty years and thinks that the entertainment world has been orphaned and lacks guidance. Kangana further called the absence of a guide the primary reason why people get derailed. She elaborated:
"I think our film industry definitely needs a lot of guidance. It's a soft power, and I think it's very underutilized. Today, be it PM Modi or our other guides, the Information Broadcast Ministry, or other programs, I have also been a part of the industry for 20 years. I think the industry is orphaned, they don't have any guidance. That's why whether it is the Jihadi agenda or the Palestinian agenda, anyone can capture them. Because they don't have any guidance, they don't know where to go."
Kangna Ranaut continued the conversation and shared that money can get the entertainment industry people to do anything. She added that this was why Dawood was able to get them to attend his parties. She also called this the reason why people from the entertainment world easily got dragged into doing drugs. Kangana was quoted saying:
"You can make them do anything by giving them a little money. Dawood takes them to his parties, they often become targets of hawala and drugs. They are very vulnerable. So I think this step to meet them is so that they will even think that PM Modi meets us, looks at our work, and thinks about us. Such things don’t happen there. They feel that they can do anything. They will go and dance at gangsters’ parties in Dubai. They feel that no one is watching them. So this is a very good step."
Kangana Ranaut further shared that Bollywood is a huge part of the entertainment industry. However, she doesn't feel like they got enough respect even though they made a significant contribution to the industry. Coming to her meeting with Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, she shared that she has requested it and hopes to meet him soon. In Kangana's words:

"They need to be a part of mainstream industries. We are a part of a very big industry, but we don't get respect like other industries. We make so many films and generate so much revenue. Coming to the fact that I don't get an audience with the Prime Minister, I have requested for one, and I hope I get it soon."
