Entertainment industry
Speaking in the Rajya Sabha during the General Discussion on the Union Budget 2025-26, Jaya Bachchan said, “One industry has been totally ignored by you, and other governments were also doing the same thing. But today you have taken it to the next level. You have totally ignored the film and entertainment industry because you only use them for serving your own purpose. Today, leave aside GST, all the single screens (theatres) are shutting down. People are not going to movie halls because everything has become so costly.
Audio-visual industry
Perhaps you want to kill this industry altogether. This is the only industry that connects the entire world to India." She further appealed for relief, saying, “I am speaking on behalf of my film industry and making a request to this House on behalf of the audio-visual industry, that please spare them. Please have some mercy for them. You are trying to kill this industry. Please do not do this. Today you have started targeting cinema also."
