'Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah' fame Munmun Dutta applauded Kangana Ranaut for her 'brave and bold' take against the ongoing nepotism practices in the Bollywood film industry. Ranaut, who has been vocal about the nefarious practices in Bollywood for some time now, made shocking revelations about how she dealt with the 'powerful people' and also why she has raised her voice on the late actor Sushant Singh Rajput's death which she terms as 'murder' on account of her belief that there was 'abetment' to his suicide.
During the interview with Republic TV's Editor-in-chief Arnab Goswami on Saturday, Ranaut lashed out at many of Bollywood's bigwigs and held them accountable for allegedly causing mental distress to Rajput. The actor further called the ongoing investigation of Sushant's suicide by Mumbai Police as 'a complete sham' as she claimed that the Police are not summoning the 'real powerful people' of Bollywood.

Sushant Singh Rajput's Death
Sushant Singh Rajput was found dead in his Bandra apartment on June 14. As per the autopsy report, the actor died due to asphyxia caused because of hanging, however, many conspiracy theories surfaced on social media suspecting that he did not die by suicide alone - rather that he was driven to it because of a boycott by key Bollywood cliques. His demise gave way to an intense discussion on mental health and depression and later, topics like nepotism, favoritism came under the spotlight again. A probe into his death is ongoing, as Kangana mentioned.
