I
Do
Support
From
Individuals
Across
Different
Walks
Of
Life
"I
don't
feel
lonely,
because
honestly,
people
may
not
be
there
with
me
physically,
but
I
get
a
lot
of
support
from
various
quarters.
I've
stood
up
for
so
many
things.
But
I've
never
had
a
situation
where
I
had
egg
on
my
face
publicly.
Like
I
said,
it
may
not
necessarily
be
from
our
industry,
but
I
do
get
support
from
individuals
across
different
walks
of
life."
'People
Really
Resonate
&
Identify
With
Me'
"God
knows
where
that
comes
from
and
how
much
people
really
resonate
and
identify
with
me.
When
the
whole
nepotism
thing
happened,
Karan
Johar
went
on
record
and
apologised
to
me.
There
are
a
whole
lot
of
instances
of
such
a
nature."
Kangana
Did
This
While
Shooting
For
Manikarnika
"When
I
began
shooting
for
Manikarnika,
I
switched
off
from
everything.
I
never
bothered
about
it,
but
there
were
these
never-ending
open
letters.
Even
in
the
past,
when
I
faced
uneasy
accusations
from
one
quarter
and
I
was
sent
a
notice,
there
was
such
an
outrage.
But
though
I
was
not
relevantly
a
big
star
and
I
was
having
this
conflict
with
a
co-actor,
I
did
find
people
supporting
me."
Kangana
On
The
Times
She
Felt
Cornered
By
The
Industry
"However,
at
times
I
did
feel
cornered,
especially
after
Simran's
failure.
Script
writer
Apurva
Asrani,
filmmakers
Ketan
Mehta,
Karan
Johar
and
Rakesh
Roshan
and
some
others
singled
me
out
for
criticism.
The
industry
was
having
these
intense
meetings
to
make
sure
I
was
put
in
my
place.
Probably
that
was
the
only
phase
when
I
felt
suffocated."
The
Actress
Felt
Targeted
The
actress
was
quoted
as
saying,
"It
makes
me
feel
suffocated
even
now
when
I
think
about
it.
Ketan
went
to
the
Economic
Offences
Wing
(EOW),
Aditya
Pancholi
filed
a
case
and
Rakesh
Roshan
continued
to
say
he
would
‘reveal' something.
However,
all
of
this
didn't
go
anywhere.
The
EOW
withdrew
the
case.
Nothing
came
out
of
that
propaganda,
they
did.
As
for
nepotism,
Karan
had
to
apologise.
But
at
that
time,
I
felt
I
couldn't
take
it
anymore
because
there
were
six-seven
things
happening
simultaneously
and
I
was
the
lone
target."
Is
Bollywood
Hierarchy
Dominated
By
Her,
Deepika
&
Alia?
To
this
she
replied,
"Let's
not
have
any
delusions
about
that.
The
kind
of
place
Shah
Rukh
Khan
and
Aamir
Khan
naturally
inherited
from
their
seniors
like
Dilip
Kumar
and
Amitabh
Bachchan
worked
differently.
Actually
as
far
as
the
girls
go,
this
is
not
something
that
can
be
looked
upon
so
superficially.
With
women
it
has
been
different.
What
we
have
currently
is
definitely
as
good
as
it
can
get.
However,
I
don't
know
about
us
being
a
part
of
the
hierarchy."
'We
Have
Definitely
Made
A
Better
Place
For
Ourselves'
"In
the
'80s
and
'90s,
we've
had
Sridevi
and
Madhuri
Dixit-Nene,
who
enjoyed
a
certain
spurt
of
superstardom.
If
you
see,
there
were
those
small
phases
of
stardom
that
they
saw,
it
was
very
age
oriented
and
focused
only
around
that
span
of
time.
Keeping
all
that
in
mind,
we've
definitely
made
a
better
place
for
ourselves."
But
Are
They
On
Par
With
Their
Male
Counterparts?
Kangana
replied,
"No.
However,
we
do
wield
a
certain
amount
of
influence
on
the
audience
and
that
feels
good."
