Alia Bhatt quotes 'Bhagavad Gita' in responding to Kangana Ranaut's comment on 'Gangubai Kathiawadi'

Kolkata/IBNS: Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt resorted to Hindu scripture 'The Shrimad Bhagavad Gita' in responding to her colleague Kangana Ranaut's recent jibe at upcoming Hindi film 'Gangubai Kathiawadi'.

When she was asked about Ranaut's comment at a press conference in Kolkata, Bhatt said in a few words, "Lord Krishna had said in The Gita, inaction is (in) action. So that's what I will say."

Ranaut, who often lashes out at "star kids", has recently called Bhatt "daddy's angel" and her father Mahesh Bhatt "a movie mafia" without taking their names.

"This Friday 200cr will be burnt to ashes at the box office ... for a papa (movie mafia daddy) ki pari (who likes to keep a British passport) because papa wants to prove that romcom bimbo can act... biggest drawback of the film is wrong casting...

"yeh nahi sudhrenge (these people won't change) no wonder screens are going to South and Hollywood films ... Bollywood is destined for doom jab tak movie mafia has power (till now movie mafia has power)..." she said on Instagram.

'Gangubai Kathiawadi's is the first project where Bhatt has collaborated with ace director Sanjay Leela Bhansali.

The film is slated for Feb 25 release.
