Ranvir Shorey, widely recognized for his roles in films like Lootcase, Ek Tha Tiger, Sonchiriya, and Khosla Ka Ghosla, recently made headlines with his appearance on Bigg Boss OTT 3. Known for being outspoken on social media, Shorey had previously taken a strong stand against Jaya Bachchan’s comments during the nepotism debate in Parliament amidst the lockdown. Now, he’s revisiting the issue, adding a new dimension to the ongoing conversation.
During the height of the nepotism debate, Jaya Bachchan criticized those labeling the film industry as nepotistic, suggesting that such remarks were undermining the very platform that had supported many actors. In response, Ranvir Shorey had sharply pointed out the challenges faced by outsiders in the industry, emphasizing that opportunities often seemed reserved for insiders.
In a recent interview with Siddharth Kannan, Shorey clarified that his previous statements were not specifically directed at Jaya Bachchan’s remarks about the industry. Instead, they were a reaction to the broader debate at the time, reflecting his own perspective on the situation.
The actor also reflected on his past comments about the ‘thaali’ remark, admitting that his response was likely driven by anger. While he received praise for his pointed social media posts, Shorey now prefers to express himself more directly rather than through sarcasm. He acknowledged that his earlier remarks were motivated by frustration and hurt over what he perceived as unfair treatment in the industry.
