In response to criticism for labelling Forrest Gump a “classist film,” Kareena Kapoor

After calling the Academy Award-winning movie Forrest Gump “an elitist kind of classist film,” actor Kareena Kapoor received criticism from some users on social media. Kareena claimed in a recent interview that she avoids Twitter because of the “one reason or another” why people troll actors. Kareena also explained her reasoning for mentioning Forrest Gump.

Kareena will appear in Laal Singh Chaddha, the official Forrest Gump translation in Hindi (1994). Forrest Gump, a film starring Tom Hanks, Robin Wright, Gary Sinise, Mykelti Williamson, and Sally Field, was directed by Robert Zemeckis and written by Eric Roth.

In an interview with News18, Kareena said, “Every day, we get trolled for one reason or another. Because of this, I don’t use Twitter. It seems to be intended for those who want to keep venting, and I don’t have time for that. With my kids, family, and job, I’m very busy. I can’t fit everything else in.

She also discussed her statement regarding Forrest Gump: “Somebody who probably doesn’t speak English will watch the film for their love of the story that they’ve come to know from the trailer and not because it’s a remake of a Hollywood film.” To allow viewers to watch and enjoy it in their own language, it is also being dubbed in Tamil and Telugu.

Kareena recently stated, “There are still a lot of people who still haven’t seen Forrest Gump,” in an interview with News18. Forrest Gump would not have been seen by the general public. It is a film that is classist in an elitist way. Since the majority of people haven’t seen it, they will watch it for the story. They won’t watch it because it is a Forrest Gump remake. Of course, Aamir (Khan) made it for that, but people would also like to see this story.

People on social media platforms expressed shock following her remark. “The reason I believe education is important,” someone tweeted. Another person added, “These individuals undercut the masses. We can now watch “elitist” movies at home thanks to OTT.

Any trash cannot compete with time and curiosity. I mean she says this for a mainstream movie, a Twitter user added.

On August 11, Laal Singh Chaddha is scheduled to arrive in theatres. The movie also stars Aamir Khan, Mona Singh, and Naga Chaitanya in addition to Kareena. Aamir Khan Productions, Kiran Rao, and Viacom18 Studios worked together to produce the movie. The Laal Singh Chaddha team just revealed that six months after its premiere, the movie will be accessible via OTT.

When her ex-boyfriend Arjun Kapoor finally says, “I am single,” Malaika Arora responds, “It is time to move on.”

Malaika Arora says she is ready to move on as she reacts to Arjun Kapoor’s ‘I am single’ remark. 
Malaika Arora and Arjun Kapoor parted ways this year after being together for several years. While Arjun admitted to being single at a promotional event for his film, Malaika had been tight-lipped about her breakup with the actor. Now, in an interview with Etimes, Malaika has reacted to the Singham Again actor’s statement.

Malaika Arora on Arjun Kapoor’s ‘I am single’ statement

Malaika Arora called Arjun Kapoor’s viral ‘I am single’ statement his prerogative and said, “I am a very private person, and there are certain aspects of my life which I don’t want to elaborate on much. I will never choose a public platform to talk about my personal life. So, whatever Arjun has said is entirely his prerogative. I just want to say that, yes, it has been a very trying year for various reasons. I think it is time for all of us to move on from whatever transpired in the year that went by. I am ready for the New Year and a new start in my life.”

When Arjun Kapoor confirmed his breakup with Malaika Arora

Earlier, during the promotions of his film, Singham Again, Arjun Kapoor told the paparazzi, “Nahin, ab main single hoon, relax karo (No, I am now single. Relax).” With this statement, the actor put an end to his breakup rumours with Malaika Arora.

Malaika Arora and Arjun Kapoor started dating in 2018. However, they did not talk much about their relationship in public. They regularly shared romantic pictures from their vacations. Even after their breakup, when Malaika Arora’s father passed away, Arjun Kapoor was there to support the actor during the difficult time. Talking about the same, Arjun Kapoor told Raj Shamani in a recent interview, “In life, without going into one instance, I’d like to say when what happened with Khushi, Janhvi, there is an instinct and impulse. In this case, also, there is an instinct and impulse. If I formed an emotional bond with somebody, I’d always lie to believe that I’d be there regardless of the good and the bad…I’m not somebody who is doing this for all and sundry. If I feel an emotion with someone, it will be there for life.”
