Kangana says Karan Johar is 'not a bad person'

Kangana, who has worked with Karan only once in Ungli (2014), had famously called him the "flagbearer of nepotism" and "movie mafia" on his chat show Koffee With Karan in 2017. This remark had sparked widespread debate in the industry.
Kangana also spoke about how her ex (actor-singer Adhyayan Suman) filed a case against her in 2017, after which she was allegedly labelled a "witch".
"Kuch log bolne lage ki yeh toh chudail hai, khoon peeti hai, kaale kamre mein kaale parde lagake kaala jaadu karti hai. So there was a witch-hunt and I was hardly 26 or 27. So when this is how they're going to treat me, why should I make them look good," she said.
The actor also credited Queen (2014) as a turning point. "It was a film where I knew how it happened. It was not a stroke of luck. I was very confident of myself at that point," she said, adding that she eventually learned to block out criticism. "I do not care [what others say].
