Kangana Ranaut’s praise
Recently, Kangana Ranaut wrote a lengthy note expressing her admiration for the film and its director, Amar Kaushik.
“Movie Stree has shattered all records, congratulations to the entire team, but the real hero of a film is the director. In India, we don’t give enough credit or appreciation to directors that’s why not many youngsters want to be writers/directors. Everyone who wants a career in films meets me for guidance and wants to be either an actor or a superstar. Who will make movies if all become actors? Socho! (Think) (sic),” read her note.
“So please learn the names of all good directors, who do so much to entertain and engage you and please follow them also. Learn about their lives and processes as well. Please appreciate them and encourage them too. Dear @amarkaushik sir, thank you for this much-needed all-time blockbuster (sic),” her post further read.
