Panchayat actor Pankaj Jha takes a dig at 'stars in Bollywood' who have little to do with acting

In a recent interview with Digital Commentary, actor Pankaj Jha aka Vidhyak ji in Panchayat slammed big-ticket Bollywood films and blamed the 'low IQ' of the Indian audiences for the success of such films.
Pankaj said that popularity has got little to do with acting talent, as there are stars with immense fame, who can’t utter a single line on-screen convincingly.

In an interview, Pankaj was asked about his replacement role of Sultan in Gangs of Wasseypur is a part of politics? Responding to this he said that politics does not affect him. If it had happened, the politician would have won. He also mentioned that those who do politics behind their backs are cowards anyway.
