Sonu Sood talked about the current state of the film industry in a recent interview with Bollywood Hungama. In an interview, Sonu said that the unity that the film industry preaches about, but doesn’t really practice. He said that it’s disappointing to observe some members of the film industry question it.
On being asked about the media trial that is hampering the Hindi film industry's image, he said, "Of course I was bothered, but what really upset me was seeing some of our own people speak against the industry. This is that industry for which he leave our homes and families. It is an industry that fulfils dreams. And now, to see people point fingers at it, you can imagine how it must have affected us."
"We all like to think we’re one big family, but the chains that can bind us are missing. People align themselves with others, no one reaches out to praise you or to offer advice. Everyone is constrained. They say they are a part of Bollywood, but they’ve created barriers around themselves," added Sood.
Sonu's remark is directly linked to Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut as the actress has claimed that 99 percent of Bollywood celebrities consume drugs. The actress even called the Bollywood industry as a 'gutter' after many Production houses took legal action against the media channels for maligning the industry's image.
