Summary
- Veteran actor Piyush Mishra criticizes excessive entourages and tantrums of young Bollywood stars
- Praises Ranbir Kapoor as a grounded exception who doesn't have "any hang-ups"
- Reveals some stars demand luxury setups with multiple makeup vans and workout facilities
In a recent interview, veteran actor and writer Piyush Mishra has openly criticized the evolving celebrity culture in Bollywood, particularly the excessive entourages and "tantrums" of the younger generation of stars. Mishra expressed disbelief at the scale of staff some actors travel with, saying it has reached a point where practicality has taken a backseat to image-building.
However, Mishra made a point to praise Ranbir Kapoor, with whom he worked on the film Tamasha. The actor recalled that Kapoor was refreshingly grounded despite his superstardom, stating "Ranbir ghazab hai (he is awesome). He doesn't have any hang-ups. He is my favorite actor."
Mishra also provided striking insights into the extent of luxury some stars demand in their vanity setups, describing how certain actors require multiple makeup vans, personal spaces, and even dedicated workout facilities as part of their entourage. This trend, he believes, has led to a situation where a single actor is accompanied by dozens of support staff.
Mishra's latest remarks once again shine a spotlight on the evolving culture within the industry, sparking debate about professionalism, practicality, and the pressures of modern-day celebrity life.
