Ever
since
B-town
celebrities
like
Priyanka
Chopra,
Kareena
Kapoor
Khan
and
Disha
Patani,
raised
their
voice
against
the
US
riots
owing
to
the
killing
of
George
Floyd,
netizens
have
been
calling
out
these
actresses
for
their
double
standards.
The
hashtag
#BlackLivesMatter
has
taken
the
internet
by
storm.
Amidst
the
debate
over
celebrities
endorsing
fairness
products,
and
at
the
same
time
raising
voice
against
'racism',
an
old
interview
of
Kangana
Ranaut
is
going
viral
on
the
internet.
In
2013,
Kangana
had
strongly
condemned
celebrities
for
endorsing
fairness
products
and
had
herself
rejected
a
Rs
2
crore
endorsement
as
well.
While
speaking
to
HT,
Kangana
said,
"Ever
since
I
was
a
kid,
I
have
never
understood
the
concept
of
fairness.
Especially,
in
such
a
case,
as
a
celebrity,
what
kind
of
an
example
would
I
be
setting
for
younger
people?
I
have
no
regrets
about
turning
this
offer
down.
As
a
public
figure,
I
have
responsibilities."
She
further
added,
"My
sister
(Rangoli
Chandel)
is
dusky,
yet
beautiful.
If
I
go
ahead
and
be
part
of
this
campaign,
then,
in
a
way,
I
would
be
insulting
her.
If
I
can't
do
that
to
my
sister,
then
how
can
I
do
it
to
the
entire
nation?"
While
speaking
about
other
celebrities
who
still
endorse
fairness
products,
Kangana
said,
"It's
about
my
value
system.
If
other
stars
are
doing
it,
it's
highly
irresponsible
behaviour
on
their
part.
But
if
they
feel
it
is
correct,
I
can't
change
their
opinion.
I
strongly
feel
that
people
should
be
responsible
for
their
actions."
With
respect
to
work,
Kangana
Ranaut
will
next
be
seen
in
Thalaivi,
the
biopic
on
late
actress-politician
Jayalalithaa.
She
will
also
next
be
seen
in
Dhaakad.
