Controversies

  • During her beginning days in Bollywood, Kangana was in a relationship with Aditya Pancholi, who was about 20 years older than her and already married. However, things got twisted when she accused Aditya of brutality and broke up with him.
  • After her break up with Adhyayan Suman, he stated, “I was emotionally bothered because of my relationship. Ranaut only understands how to use, abuse, and throw. Kangana has flooded me with abusive calls ever since the truth about her fake claims came out. I have remained silent on her abusive nature for several years, but she is crossing all limits now. Since I haven’t been taking her calls, her aides have been calling my mother and harassing her.”
  • Kangana Ranaut is known for her bold statements, but she made a gaffe during a chat show by saying that, “Just good friends could be friendship plus f**k buddies. Just friends in Bollywood mean f**k buddies who are little promoted.”
  • During the 2012 Blender Pride Fashion Week, in Mumbai, Kangana suffered a wardrobe malfunction while walking the ramp for designer Gavin Miguel.
  • Kangana and Hrithik Roshan had a media-led fight which started off with her calling him a silly ex and later resulted in full-blown name-calling, e-mail leaking, legal battle.
  • During the MeToo movement in 2018, she  alleged that Vikas Bahl had harassed her on the sets of ‘Queen.’
  • Just before the release of her film Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi in 2019, the Karni Sena threatened the makers of the movie that if the image of Rani Lakshmibai is maligned in the film, then makers will have to face consequences. To which Ranaut strongly answered, 4 historians have certified ‘Manikarnika’, we have got censor certificate as well, Karni Sena has been conveyed this but they are continuing to harass me. If they don’t stop then they should know I am also a Rajput and I will defeat each one of them.
  • Kangana and Sanjay Raut of the Shiv Sena barred in a bitter war of words since Kangana termed Mumbai unsafe after the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput. Earlier, her comment that she dreaded living in Mumbai had led to a severe backlash from the Shiv Sena, and the state’s home minister Anil Deshmukh said she had no right to stay in Mumbai. She accused Sena leaders like Sanjay Raut of threatening her and remarked why is Mumbai feeling like Pakistan-occupied- Kashmir. This comment escalated the row between Kangana and Shiv Sena. Later, the Centre government-sanctioned “Y-plus” security cover to Kangana Ranaut; with this, the actress had a total of 11 CRPF personnel for her personal protection.
