Samajwadi Party MP Jaya Bachchan recently made a statement in Parliament about the unfairness of painting the entire industry with the same brush.

Prasoon said in an interview to Times Now, “A lot of the things because of the way they are said today, the real essence gets lost. Discrediting film industry which has actually done wonderful work that’s also not right. But what Kangana is coming from, she is talking about her truth. Usko trivialise nahi kiya jaana chahiye (she should not be trivialised).”

The NCB has also summoned many A-list Bollywood actresses for questioning in relation to the current drug controversy.

Asked if it is correct to say there is no drugs problem in the film industry, Prasoon said in Hindi, “Absolutely not. You have a responsibility towards society, you cannot absolve yourself of it. People say that certain things are being blown out of proportion, but no one complains when only positive things are reported. You like it very much when people talk about your airport look. Earlier you should have said ‘this is my private life I don’t want to flaunt it, what’s so great about what I ate today?’”
