Hrithik’s ‘Super 30’ and Kangana’s ‘Judgementall Hai Kya’ were supposed to release on the same date. However, the makers of ‘Super 30’ shifted their release date to July 12 after Roshan requested them.
Hrithik has issued a statement on social media which read, ‘’ "So as to not allow my film to be desecrated by yet another media circus, i have decided to shift the release date of my film 'Super 30' in order to save myself from the personal trauma and toxic mental violence this would cause."
Kangana Ranaut also issued a statement and questioned Hrithik for his 'sob story'.
"Hrithik Roshan, Madhu Mantena and Ekta Kapoor had collectively decided that Hrithik would push 'Super 30's release date and Ekta will bring her film MHK on 26th July. They had taken this call last week itself, I don't know why he wrote this sob story but I am glad MHK (is) getting a solo release, I salute my producer Ekta Kapoor for making her way in this male dominated industry, it's not easy to do what she does... I applaud her courage and power."
The clash between ‘Judgementall Hai Kya’ and ‘Super 30’ was averted but it seems the public outburst and war of words between the two won't die anytime soon.
Hrithik, who is currently busy promoting ‘Super 30’, opened up about the constant digs by Kangana and her sister Rangoli Chandel on him.
"I have come to realize that bullies have to be treated with a certain amount of patience and not engaged with. It's upon the civil society and those who claim to be just and fair to see and observe if there is harassment. Also being who I am, if I choose to confront as per laws I become the aggressor, if I withdraw from a film clash that I know has been pre-designed then I become a weakling penning a sob story," the ‘Bang Bang’ actor told Hindustan Times.
Rangoli didn’t take kindly to Hrithik’s words and slammed him for his statement on Kangana on Twitter.
‘’Yeh dekho uncle ji phir shuru ho gaye, arrey chal bhai aage badh, thode thode dinon baad baizzati ki dose ki lat lag gayi hai shayad, tere liye ab mere paas koi dose nahin hai, chal phoot yahan se,’’ she wrote on the micro-blogging site.
