Kangana Ranaut slammed a journalist who asked her about Deepika Padukone during the press conference for the former’s reality show a few days ago.
The interviewer inquired about Kangana’s reaction to an influencer slamming Deepika for the ‘hemlines and necklines’ she wore during the marketing of Gehraiyaan. Kangana Ranaut, on the other hand, stated, “Look, I’m here to stand up for
people who can’t stand up for themselves. Alright? She is capable of defending herself. I can’t promote her film since she has the privilege and the platform. Please have a seat.”
Now, the actress took a dig at Deepika’s Gehraiyaan. She took to her Instagram Story section and shared the song Chand Si Mehbooba Ho Meri from the film, Himalay Ki God Mein. Sharing the clip, she wrote, “I am also a millennial but I identify and understand this kind of romance … In the name of millennial/new age/urban movies don’t sell trash pls… bad movies are bad movies no amount of skin show or pornography can_save it… It’s a basic fact kol gehralyaan wall baat nahi hai (there is no depth in it),” and ended her note with a wink emoji.
Shakun Batra’s Gehraiyaan was released on February 11 and has been receiving mixed reviews from critics and audiences. However, Deepika Padukone’s performance was praised by several people. The film also stars Ananya Panday, Siddhant Chaturvedi and Dhairya Karwa in lead roles.
Meanwhile, Kangana Ranaut is all set to make her OTT debut with Ekta Kapoor’s reality show Lock Upp. The actress was last seen in the film Thalaivil. Next, she has Dhaakad and Tejas in the pipeline. She has also taken upon the role of a producer for the film Tiku Weds Sheru. The maiden project of her production house Manikarnika Films, Tiku Weds Sheru stars Nawazuddin Siddique and Avneet Kaur in lead roles.
