Kajol slammed
Actress Kajol, who is currently busy promoting her upcoming supernatural thriller, Maa, has stirred controversy with her recent remarks. During one of her promotional events, the actress made a comment about Hyderabad's iconic Ramoji Film City, which did not sit well with the internet, especially the people of Hyderabad.
During a recent interview with Galatta India, the Maa actress was asked if she had ever experienced negative energies around her. Replying to this, she shared, “I have experienced this multiple times. Call it negative energy or vibes, but sometimes, when you go to a place, you feel like something isn’t right. I’ve shot at places where I couldn’t sleep all night, where I felt it would be good if I could just leave this place.”
Citing Ramoji Film City as a 'prime example,' she said, "There are quite a few places like that. A prime example is Ramoji Rao Studios in Hyderabad, which is considered one of the most haunted places in the world. I am lucky enough not to have seen anything (ghosts), though."
