Kangana Ranaut recently took to her Instagram stories to react to a video of Priyanka Chopra in which the latter talked about pay disparity in Bollywood.

Kangana Ranaut never shies away from making explosive statements about the Hindi film industry and she is at it yet again! This time, the actress has reacted to a video of Priyanka Chopra in which the latter spoke about pay disparity in Bollywood.

The actress, who had earlier supported Priyanka when she claimed about being ‘pushed into a corner’ in Bollywood, took to her Instagram stories and shared a long post along with a clipping from Priyanka’s interview.

In the video, the Citadel actress is seen talking how she never had pay parity in Bollywood, even after doing around 60 films. PeeCee also shared that she was paid about 10% of what the male actor would get paid.

Kangana shared her take on Priyanka’s statement with a note that read, “It’s true women before me simply submitted to these patriarchal norms… I was the first one to fight for pay parity and most disgusting thing that I faced while doing this that my contemporaries offered to work for free on the same roles that I was negotiating for… I can say with confidence most A listers (women) do films for free along with offering other favours because they fear roles will go to the right people… and then shrewdly release articles that they are highest paid ha ha…”

Further, the Tanu Weds Manu actress also claimed that she is the only female actor in the film industry who gets paid equally as the male actors.

“In the film industry everyone knows that I only get paid like male actors and no one else… and they have no one else to blame atleast now…” Kangana concluded in her note.

For the unversed, Priyanka Chopra and Kangana Ranaut had earlier shared screen space in Madhur Bhandarkar’s acclaimed film Fashion for which both the actresses bagged a National Award.
