In a recent podcast, Kangana shares her thoughts on friendships in the industry and the importance of professional collaboration despite personal differences.

The conflict intensified when Kangana, who took over as director from Krish Jagarlamudi midway through the filming, accused Sonu of being reluctant to work under a female director.

In response, Sonu chose to downplay her allegations, referring to them as her “nadaani” (silliness) and opting not to engage in a direct confrontation.In a recent podcast interview with Shubhankar Mishra, Kangana revisited this fallout and expressed her belief that not everyone needs to be friends.

She stated, “It’s not important that we become friends with everyone we meet.

You only make so many friends.

Those who are upset with me should stay upset with me.”

Her comments reflect a candid perspective on relationships in the film industry, where conflicts often arise.

Kangana Ranaut’s and Sonu Sood’s feud

Sonu Sood has also opened up about the rift, acknowledging that he and Kangana have not been in communication since their disagreement.

He reflected on the situation, noting, “People can say whatever they want, but I will never say anything against them.

I might feel upset thinking, ‘This person was a good friend and said such things’.

I feel that it’s her foolishness; she is not a bad person.

But sometimes, when you write or say things, you don’t actually think it through.”

His remarks highlight a sense of disappointment but also a reluctance to engage in negative discourse.

During the podcast, Kangana was posed a question about working with individuals whose ideologies differ from hers.

She confidently responded, “Of course.

What type of question is this? So many actors I have worked with come from different ideologies.”

She elaborated that personal feelings should not interfere with professional collaborations, stating, “Even if I don’t like a person, I can work with them because I am not the authority on that person’s character. I can’t pass judgment on them.”

Kangana Ranaut on working with Swara Bhasker

When asked about the possibility of collaborating again with her Tanu Weds Manu co-star Swara Bhasker, Kangana affirmed, “Of course we can work together. Back then, too, her ideology was different.”

She reflected on Swara’s consistent discussions of communism and socialism during their time on set, emphasising her willingness to work alongside others without forming preconceived notions based solely on interviews or public perceptions.

“I have never formed a perception about an actor or any person based on their interviews. This privilege is with leftists, not with us,” she concluded.
