Days after her controversial remarks on Kriti Sanon’s jewellery-brand outfit buzz, Kangana Ranaut made a shocking statement, saying that women are free to wear whatever they choose on Raksha Bandhan.

Days after sparking controversy over her remark on Kriti Sanon's jewellery brand campaign, BJP MP and actor Kangana Ranaut is back, making new statements. This time, the Queen star appeared to react to Sanon while speaking about Raksha Bandhan celebrations, saying that women are free to wear whatever they want. Kangana's previous remark about the Cocktail 2 actress and questioning her about her outfit in the Rakhi ad has stirred debate online. Kangana Ranaut takes another swipe at Kriti Sanon On August 26, Kangana Ranaut appeared on Sudhir Chaudhary's prime-time show, DECODE. During the conversation, Sudhir Chaudhary questioned her bikini remark about Kriti Sanon and asked about the broader debate over women's choice of clothing. Ranaut said her comments were not a personal attack on Sanon. Also Read: Kriti Sanon's ad removed after backlash over cultural sentiments She replied, saying, "Jis tarah ki filmon mein hum unhe dekhte hain, unhe kaun rok raha hai kuch pehnne se? Kis ne unhe roka hai, kis ko kya padi hai?" (The way she dresses in her films, who has stopped her from wearing anything she wants? I don't think anybody has anything to do with her choice of outfits) Concluding her remarks, the BJP MP said, "A woman can wear whatever she wants to wear on Raksha Bandhan." Further, Ranaut argues that an individual's personal choices cannot always be separated from the cultural context in which they are made. She stated, "How can one have such a foolish way of thinking? The aesthetic expression of any civilisation is its festival." In response to the controversy surrounding the campaign's withdrawal, Kangana claimed that the outfit was only a small part of the problem. “The bralette was a very small part, the bigger concern was that the advertisement did not feature several elements traditionally associated with Raksha Bandhan celebrations. Like, where are the parents? Where is the home? There was no halwa, puri, God, tilak, akshat, incense or lamp—nothing,” she said.

<p>She told IANS, “My point of view is that there are many religious people who believe in one single God, not many Gods. In ‘Vande Mataram’, there is a stanza which says that many Gods are mentioned in&nbsp;</p><p>‘Vande Mataram’”</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>“It is difficult for those who believe in one religion to say, ‘Vande Kali, Vande Durga’.

The CWC resolution of 1937… Mahatma Gandhi, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, Rabindranath Tagore, Subhas Chandra Bose and Sardar Patel. We will abide by the decision taken by them. Our Congress workers will do that only – sing only the first two stanzas,” Venugopal said. “The national anthem (Jana Gana Mana) and Vande Mataram are emotional for the Congress, but it is political for the BJP. That is the difference between us and them,” he added.</p>

<p>She stated, "Yes, I am an <i>andhbhakt</i> (blind follower). If it is <i>bhakti </i>(devotion) to love your country and want to see it progress, then yes, I am proud to be a <i>bhakt… andhbhakt</i>. But my blind devotion is not towards any political party; it’s towards my country. Nation first. I can question the government and disagree with its policies, and still love my country wholeheartedly."</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>She further spoke about India and how proud she is to live there. “This country is my home, where I have earned and continue to earn a livelihood and where I continue to get opportunities. So, I am not ashamed to be proud of my country. Wherever you may live, learn to love that place, respect that place, and contribute to it. Be proud of the home you choose, because patriotism is not just saying, ‘I love my country.’ It is doing something that improves your country,” Koppikar said.</p><h2>Kangana Ranaut's ‘Generation Gutter’ remark</h2><p>Before Isha Koppikar, Ranaut also faced significant criticism after calling the country’s youth “Generation Gutter.” In her viral video, Ranaut was seen saying, “Never in my life have I seen so much ugliness in one place. These reels from Gen Z protests are puke-inducing. The way they speak and the kind of language they are using... never in my life have I seen everything in each and every frame so jarring and so crass all at once....I call them Generation Gutter. Some of them have nothing to offer to the system. They are not good at studies."</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Her remarks drew backlash and later led her to clarify that her comments were not aimed at all youth or Gen Z, but at specific individuals who use vulgar language.</p>

Isha Koppikar is trending online due to her ‘andhbhakt’ remark. Amid massive backlash, Kangana Ranaut backed the actress over her clarification video, recalling her high school days of protesting.

After significant criticism, the actress took a jab at online trolls and posted a video, calling herself an “andhbhakt" (blind follower). Supporting Koppikar, BJP MP and actor Kangana Ranaut shared the Instagram video on her official social media account, showing her support and echoing the actress's statement. Kangana Ranaut backs Isha Koppikar On August 18, Tuesday, Isha Koppikar posted a video in which she declared herself a proud "andhbhakt" (blind devotee).

Yes, I am in politics for the past 2 years, but i have been in public life for the last 20 years. At his age, I had 2 national awards; yes, as a new parliamentarian I was overwhelmed with all the work because i am also a filmmaker + performing artist + producer + screenwriter + entrepreneur. But some one like him who is totally useless and unemployed will never understand what it means to be in massive demand at all times at any age. Dear Saurav, your issues are personal; you are not a student; you are simply useless. Let's start with learning some skill. it's a good place to start.'' she wrote.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>While Das has reacted to Ranaut's words peacefully, CJP spokesperson Ashutosh Ranka has reacted sharply to her words.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>“You've called us cockroaches, you've called us gutter; remember, these cockroaches crawled out of the gutter and forced one of your ministers to resign,” he said.&nbsp;</p><h3>Kangana Ranaut clarifies her 'Generation Gutter' remark:</h3><p>After referring to Gen Z protesters as ‘Generation Gutter’, Kangana has faced huge backlash.

<p>''In the first film, my only focus was to watch her work up close. When you watch any actor's work from nearby, but when you watch her work up close, you notice at what point and on what note she leaves the scene. There are so many things that she's not greedy for. Because she focuses on the overall arc of the character, leaving out many small things, because she has to focus on the overall arc of the character. So this intelligence is outstanding. As I have always said, when you work with great actors, some things also rub off on you. It’s always like that. So I always see her that way, and she’s a mind-blowing actress.''</p>

<p>Esha Dey, known for her work in Marathi theatre and popular show Maharashtrachi Hasyajatra, shared how Kangana praised her work during the shoot of the movie.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Adding to what Smita said, Dey said, ''Kangana is a brilliant actor, and I admire. Yes, she’s outspoken and straightforward. But as a co-actor, when it comes to work, she’s very focused and on it, not scattered here and there. But when any department is working, she lets them work.''</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>''What's best is that she really appreciates everyone's work. For me, there was a shot of mine where she went behind the monitor to watch that scene, and then she praised it, saying I had done it nicely. Those little things, that appreciation, really matter. And when somebody you admire does that, I think that’s the blessing,'' she said. &nbsp;</p><h3>Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata review</h3><p>WION Pragati Awasthi hailed the movie saying Kangana Ranaut throws light on untold side of 26/11 beyond Taj and Leopold. ''Led by Kangana, the movie is not solely or entirely about her. She’s there as the anchor, but the long sequences of the movie also focus on other actors. She has always been one of the finest actors and so has given the commendable performance, but unlike her last few films where the cameras were focused on her, this time the focus has shifted to other nurses, characters, and others,'' <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bollywood/bharat-bhagya-vidhata-review-kangana-ranaut-shines-a-light-on-a-26-11-story-beyond-taj-and-leopold-1781247272099">she writes.</a></p>

At moments, the movie goes overboard with dialogues and actions that may feel unnecessary or overdone. But that’s the little creative liberty that’s always demanded by a film. Having watched so many movies and documentaries on this incident, I can say this movie captures the events with both emotion and fear, alongside moments of warmth. This film will make you think about a story, which has remained largely hidden.
