Kangana Ranavat-starrer ‘Judgmental Hai Kya’ is in the headlines again – for another wrong reason.
In Bollywood, Kangana is the epitome of controversy and everything she attaches to becomes controversial. Take her previous few films for example.
First, she got into an ugly fight with a reporter during the promotion of JHK, then she called the Indian media ‘pseudo-liberals’ in one of her comments.

“Looks totally like my work!” said Borsi on Rajkummar Rao’s post.
In another tweet, she highlighted Kangana’s image and added,
“This movie poster plagiarized my art! Could someone explain what’s happening, please? This is not right.”

No Permission Was Given
Later, in a Facebook post, Borsi said:
“They didn’t ask for any permission nor reached out to me. It’s a shame for big companies plagiarising freelance artists work.”
Balaji Films and Ekta Kapoor are yet to respond to Borsi’s claims. In any case, its evident that the artwork from the film took more than ‘inspiration’ from the Hungarian freelancer’s work. Bollywood is no stranger to ripping off work by other artists, but its good to see that it does get called out for its callous behavior every now or then.
