The ongoing tiff between Kangana Ranaut and Hrithik Roshan's upcoming films were making the headlines lately and now recently, the actress' 'Mental Hai Kya' co-star Rajkummar Rao commented on the same. Rajkummar Rao, who is currently gearing up for his upcoming horror comedy Rooh-Afza, alongside Janhvi Kapoor, opened up about the same during a recent media interaction and said the decision of releasing the film doesn't concern him as the makers are completely responsible to take the final call.

Talking about the clash between his film and Hrithik Roshan's 'Super 30', he said that he is not aware of any such thing since he has just returned from Haryana where he reportedly was shooting for his upcoming venture.

He said he has not read the news, as the place where he was had no network connectivity. However, he said that Ekta and Hrithik have already given their statement, and he has nothing more to add to it. 

The ‘Hrithik Roshan-Kangana Ranaut controversy’ made headlines 2-3 years ago over their alleged relationship, email leaks, controversial statements, and legal notices and though it still hasn’t achieved its official closure, ultimately it is a thing of the past. However, the turn of events in the lives of both the actors keeps bringing this past event into the present. The latest such incident was the temporary clash at the box office between the former’s ‘Super 30’ and the latter’s ‘Mental Hai Kya.’

After Hrithik released a statement to announce he was shifting the release date of his next to save himself from the ‘personal trauma and toxic mental violence ‘, the actress has hit back. The ‘Queen’ star wondered why the actor wrote a ‘sob story’ since the decision was taken by the makers in consultation with Hrithik to release their movie on July 26. 

Reports started doing the rounds that ‘Mental Hai Kya’ release date was being changed on Kangana’s insistence. However, producer Ekta Kapoor denied it vehemently and added that the move was only for ‘business prospects’ as she condemned the other reports. 

Ekta Kapoor took to her Twitter handle and issuing a statement on the clash wrote: "My decision my film.....so all brickbats directed to me pls! I’m my own person !!!" [sic]
