Swara Bhasker Takes A Jibe At Kangana Ranaut: ‘We Really Need To Rethink The Statement That One Has To Be A Great Human Being To Be A Great Artist'
For quite some time, Kangana Ranaut is in the news owing to her comments on anything and everything. It all began when Ranaut started targeting Bollywood’s ‘privileged club,’ and calling out filmmakers for being partial to outsiders and favouring star kids. Ranaut again began to target Bollywood filmmakers and actors after Sushant Singh Rajput allegedly ended his life. For the past few weeks, Kangana is also making headlines for her Twitter war with Punjabi singer and actor Diljit Dosanjh. Diljit slammed Kangana in his series of tweets for misidentifying an elderly old woman at the Farmers’ protest.

During a latest interview, Kangana Ranaut’s Tanu Weds Manu co-star Swara Bhasker said that a great actor doesn’t necessarily mean that they are great human beings too. Ranaut had called Swara and Taapsee Pannu, ‘B Grade actresses.’ Speaking to IANS, Swara said, “I think it has nothing to do with Kangana in specific. Yes, in past we had our share of arguments but I think we really need to rethink that statement that one has to be a great human being to be a great artist. We often make this mistake that just because a person is playing a character on screen that is enduring and heroic and because they are great with their craft and are talented, they are the same in real life. No, that does not necessarily mean that they are great human beings in real life. That does not mean that all the heroic quality of an on-screen character is there in the actor, who is performing it.”

She then stated, "There is nothing further from the truth. Acting is a profession like any other. A doctor, an engineer, or a teacher could be great at their jobs, (but that) does not mean they are great human beings, too. I, for instance, was a fan of a particular author because of his writing. When I met him in person, I think he is one of the most obnoxious person I have come across. But he is a great writer. So, your craft is not who you are as an individual. Whether you are a dancer, singer, actor, writer, or photographer, you have to have talent, training and skill, and you have to know your craft. That may not be the reflection of your personality.”
