Bollywood actor Kajol has responded to the controversy around her comments on the Ramoji Film City. The actor is busy promoting her upcoming horror drama Maa. The Hindi movie, part of the Shaitaan horror films, is set to hit the screens on June 27, 2025.

In one of the recent interviews, Kajol had said that the popular film studio is “one of the most haunted places in the world.” Following her remark, fans slammed her for “being jealous about the Telugu industry.”

The actor took to social media to issue a clarification about her statement. “I wish to address my earlier remark about Ramoji Film City in the context of promoting my film MAA. I have filmed multiple projects at Ramoji Film City and stayed there many times over the years,” wrote Kajol.

“I have always found it to be a very professional environment for filmmaking, and I have seen so many tourists enjoying themselves. It’s a great destination and absolutely safe for families and children,” she added.

In her interview, talking about her experience at the Ramoji Film City in Hyderabad, Kajol had said, “There are a lot of places where we have been, stayed there, and even shot at, but we couldn’t sleep the whole night. Or we felt like getting out of there would become a big deal, and that we would never come back there.
