Kangana Ranaut says she will expose “Bullywood” in her new film following the arrest of Raj Kundra
Actress, Kangana Ranaut has been very vocal since the arrest of UK businessman and Shilpa Shetty’s husband, Raj Kundra, on charges of porn racketeering.
She took to her Instagram stories where she wrote: "This is why I call movie industry a gutter ... all that glitters is not gold, I am going to expose underbelly of Bullywood in my upcoming production called ’Tiku Weds Sheru’ ... we need strong value system and conscience in the creative industry and of course a whip".

The late Sushant Singh Rajput’s sister Shweta defends Ankita Lokhande
Sushant Singh Rajput’s sister Shweta Singh Kirti has openly defended the late actor’s ex-girlfriend on social media.
Ankita Lokhanda is constantly trolled by social media users for apparently “using Sushant’s” name to gain fame and stay relevant, however Shweta responded to the trolls in a manner sure to shut them up.
On Facebook she wrote: “Drdivya I really don’t know what the truth is … but it is hard for me to overlook how Ankita has always stood by the family even after the death of Bhai.
“I have seen her take care of Bhai, once when I was visiting him in Mumbai and he had stomach pain I saw how she called the doc, gave him medicine and showered him with love.
“The act was enough to prove to me that she has a kind and loving heart,” she added.
Sushant died on June 14, last year. While his girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty had to face a media trial and was also arrested in a drug case related to the actor’s death, Ankita was trolled continuously for “dumping him” and moving on with Vicky Jain.
