Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub is a stellar actor and there’s no doubt about that. Whether it was Dhanush starrer Raanjhanaa or the controversial web series Tandav, he has managed to bring out different parts with ease. To add to that, Zeeshan has collaborated with Kangana Ranaut on Tanu Weds Manu Returns and Manikarnika. However, the actor now reveals that he hasn’t spoken with her ever since he discovered that there was a massive political difference between him and her.
In an interview with The Lallantop, Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub shared that after Manikarnika, Kangana Ranaut became more vocal about her political ideology, one that is vastly different from him, “Her politics weren’t as clear during Manikarnika… She called me to her house, told me about the role, said it was a five-day job. The money was good, and I wasn’t aware at the time about the controversy with Sonu Sood. We had a good time during those five days. It wasn’t awkward. But we haven’t spoken since. After I discovered these political differences, we haven’t met,” he shared.
The actor added, “My minimum requirement from people is that they don’t justify the deaths of others, that they don’t say that lynchings used to happen earlier as well… If you say things like this, then sorry, I can’t sit across from you. I’m open to having rational discussions, but the moment someone asks weren’t people dying earlier as well, weren’t massacres happening, is where I draw the line. I can sit across from humans. I don’t even want to call such people animals, because animals are actually lovely.”
Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub was recently seen in Hansal Mehta’s Scoop. Meanwhile, Kangana Ranaut is gearing up for her directorial on Indra Gandhi titled Emergency. The actress will also be seen in a patriotic film titled Tejas.
