The controversy surrounding Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut began when she made anti-national comments during her appearance at Times Summit. Ranaut regarded India’s 1947 freedom as a ‘bheek’ and not an achievement. There’s been a storm nationwide and many people had even requested the government to take her Padma Shri back. Now, Congress leader Vijay Wadettiwar has recently called her ‘naachnewali’.
After giving a controversial statement on India’s 1947 freedom, Kangana gathered all the guts to defend her statement. But instead ended up creating another scandal for herself. Things got complicated after she brought Gandhiji and Netaji into the matter. In her defense, Ranaut said, “Either you are a Gandhi fan or Netaji supporter. You can’t be both, choose and decide.” She even added a picture from a 1940s newspaper that had a headline reading, ‘Gandhi, others agreed to hand over Netaji.’
Reacting to all the mess, Congress Leader stated paps where he said, “If some dancer girl (naachanewali) levels allegations against Mahatma Gandhi, I do not consider it worthy of a response.”
He didn’t stop there, Vijay Wadettiwar further added that if someone spits at the sun, it will eventually fall right back at them. “Nine out of ten people badmouth her (Kangana Ranaut). There is no need to talk more about her,” he added.
Meanwhile, the actress is receiving backlash from netizens also. Her effigies are getting burnt at various places. There are protests also that are going on against her. many politicians have demanded her immediate arrest.
Recently, Kangana was heard raising her voice against Vir Das’ poem on ‘Two Indias.’ She tagged the actor comedian’s work as anti-national.
