'Morally Wrong But Happens', Richa Chadha On People Celebrating Kangana's Dhaakad Failure
Referring to Kangana Ranaut's Dhaakad, Richa Chadha said how it is 'morally wrong' to celebrate the failure of a film. However, she also wrote that the same happens with almost everyone in the industry.
Kangana Ranaut's Dhaakad was high on the buzzword ever since its teaser dropped unveiling the actress's look as Agent Agni. The film, however, hasn't fared well at the box office and it is also being reported that some shows of the film in theatres were replaced by Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2.
Dhaakad got mixed reviews from critics, despite Kangana calling it a film of 'international standards'. Some Twitter users also criticised the film on social media.

About Dhaakad
Dhaakad is an action-packed film that stars Kangana in the role of a brave spy who will stop at nothing to get what she wants. Ever since the teaser of the film was unveiled, Kangana has received a lot of praise for her look in the film. The film also stars Divya Dutta and Arjun Rampal.
Ahead of the release of the film, Kangana was making headlines for buying a swanky Mercedes Maybach. A video of the actress was doing rounds on social media in which she is seen cutting the ribbon of her brand new car and saying, "I look like just married."
Kangana Promoting Dhaakad
Kangana appeared on The Kapil Sharma Show to promote her film. The comedian, on his YouTube channel, shared an 'uncensored' video from the episode. In the video, Kangana Ranaut could be seen telling the audience that most of the crew of Dhaakad consisted of foreigners. After this, Kapil was seen asking Kangana if she planned to help them make their (the foreign crew's) Bollywood debut or was trying to plan for her debut in Hollywood.
Kangana replied and said, "Humare yaha pe itne talented log hai na, to humme kahin aane jaane ki zarurat nahi hai. Ab jaise ki, world has become one place na, to sab log yaha kaam kare, waha ke log yaha pe kaam kar rahe hai. (We have a lot of talent here so we don¡¯t need to go anywhere. The world has become one place now and a lot of people are coming from other places to India and working here)."
She added, "We have made a film of an international standard but 80 percent talent is ours. International critiques are saying 'They have made a better film than us', though we didn¡¯t have 1% budget of what they have.¡±

Dhaakad is directed by Razneesh Ghai and recorded the opening day collections of Rs 65 lakhs.
