Kangana Ranaut took to Twitter to express her support to UP CM’s latest initiative. The actor ‘applauded’ the move and highlighted the need for ‘many reforms.’

She wrote that one of them was that the industry needed to be ‘one big film industry’ as right now it was being ‘divided on many factors.’ The Queen star also stated that Hindi film industry being synonymous to Indian film industry was ‘wrong.’ She gave the  example of the rise of Telugu cinema and how even Hindi films were now being shot at the Ramoji Film City in Hyderabad. Kangana also shared that Indian film industry becoming ‘one industry, many film cities’ was one of the aspects that had made it different from Hollywood, in terms of their success.
