Boycott calls for Bollywood movies are “baseless.”

Ranbir Kapoor, who is currently promoting his upcoming romantic comedy Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar, has said that the boycott calls for Bollywood movies are “baseless.”

Answering to a question on the boycott trend, PTI (Press Trust of India) quoted Ranbir saying, “If you ask me about any call about ‘Boycott Bollywood’, I really find that baseless. There are so many negative things coming post-pandemic. Films are made for entertainment purposes; we are not saving the world. So, audiences come to theatres to forget worries. They come to watch films on big screen, to have a good time. I just don’t know the boycott thing.”

Speaking on the stupendous success of Pathaan, Ranbir told the agency, “What Pathaan has managed to do, the film industry needed it. Very happy and grateful that Pathaan has done that. And I think Shah Rukh Khan deserves all the success for Pathaan. I have seen him as an actor, I have been able to work with him several times. He gave so much to this industry. I am very proud of him.”

Directed by Luv Ranjan and starring Shraddha Kapoor, Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar will be releasing in cinemas on March 8.
