Kangana Ranaut came in support of SS Rajamouli after a media publication called out the RRR director for his religious remarks.
The filmmaker briefly spoke about religion in his latest conversation with The New Yorker. He mentioned that after reading texts of various religions he came to the conclusion that religion is a kind of exploitation. Kangana Ranaut defends SS Rajamouli over his comments and dares to not speak against him as she won’t tolerate it.
In a recent interview to The New Yorker, ace filmmaker SS Rajamouli expressed his views on religious and Hindu texts. He mentioned he has not become an atheist, while there was a phase in his life when he was strictly religious. However, his love for Mahabharat and Ramayana remains, pushing away from those texts and religious aspects. A media publication OpIndia carried the excerpt of the article on their website. OpIndia took to its Twitter handle writing “Inspired by ‘The Fountainhead’, SS Rajamouli says ‘religion is essentially a kind of exploitation.”
