Ranvir Shorey calls out 'The Gang' of Bollywood
“The Gang” is essentially a mutually beneficial alliance of a few powerful, corrupt, crafty old men, and a few second generation younger producers who have inherited film empires. Their objective is to have control over the top of the pyramid and have pliable stars. #Bollywood

I’ve had a run in with one of them 15 years ago. This is the man who fancies himself as the holy-moly Dronacharya of the gang, except when it comes to covering up the indiscretions and crimes of his own offsprings. A product of a damaged mind and faux spirituality.

Continuing in the same thread, the actor shared his experience of having a run-in with them. Ranvir Shorey revealed that he faced them 15 years ago.

The modus operandi is that when you’re vulnerable, like the death or loss of a close one, you’re professionally & socially ostracised by spreading lies and rumours, through the media, as well as the grapevine, leaving you disoriented and hopeless with a sense of doom.

Calling out their method of operation, Ranvir Shorey said that they socially and professionally ostracise a person when they are vulnerable. He further said that they ostracise the person by spreading lies and rumours in the media as well as in the 'grapevine'. The actor added that it leaves the person 'hopeless' and 'disoriented' with a 'sense of doom'.
In an earlier thread, a netizen called out Shorey and asked him to name the people involved. In response, the actor said that he does not prefer naming anyone because he does not have proof of their wrongdoings. Explaining the reason behind speaking up in the first place, he revealed that he went through the same social isolation a few years ago.
The actor said that the despair he went through at that time was enough to break him. Ranvir Shorey credited his friends and family for helping him get through it. He added that he even had to leave the country because the environment became 'too toxic' for him and said that it was not a coincidence but a modus-operandi.
