Kajol calls Hyderabad's Ramoji Film City haunted, leaves internet divided
'Kajol calling Ramoji Film City as the most haunted place in the world is a slight on the largest Film City in Asia or even the world due to jealousy and envy for Hindi Cinema to have fallen far from its glory (sic)," one user noted. Others called it a subtle dig at the Telugu film industry, pointing out that iconic blockbusters like Baahubali, Pushpa, and RRR were filmed there without incident.Meanwhile, another section of fans concurred with her and recalled incidents that surfaced in the past.advertisementRead some of the comments here:
Despite the backlash, Kajol isn't the first celebrity to speak about spooky experiences at Ramoji. Earlier, Taapsee Pannu, filmmaker Ravi Babu, Raashi Khanna and director Sundar C, among others, voiced their opinions about the place. Urban legends surrounding the studio's construction, allegedly atop the graves of Nizam-era soldiers, have fuelled ghost stories for decades.While the debate over the film city's paranormal reputation continues, Kajol's comments have undeniably rekindled interest in its long-standing legends, just in time for the release of 'Maa', which hits theatres on June 27.Must Watch
