Many times we have to become involved in such conversations in which we are not at all interested. Here I will talk about one such incident that took place last Sunday. My parents were watching news on the television and suddenly some news regarding a rift between Kangana Ranaut and Shiv Sena began to appear. Actually, Kangana Ranaut is currently hitting headlines for a comment she made about the city of Mumbai, that has now snowballed into a massive controversy. It all began when Kangana Ranaut posted on Twitter that she was feeling unsafe after Sushant Singh Rajput’s death in Mumbai and stated that Mumbai felt like Pakistan occupied Kashmir (POK). She openly said that Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut has threatened her to leave Mumbai. He was also found using abusive words for Kangana on national television. My father and mother began to share views regarding the news that Kangana indeed is a daring woman and has time and again taken stands on many issues in Bollywood. Although, this news is doing the rounds on almost all the news channels since 2-3 weeks owing to which I have become tired of it as it is so repetitive and also can be seen everywhere on social media. My father asked me for my opinion on the issue and I said that I also support Kangana and that I was tired of hearing about this issue over and over again.

He told me during the conversation that Kangana had posted on Twitter, in 2008 Movie Mafia declared her a Psycho, in 2016 they called her a Witch and Stalker and in 2020 Maharashtra Minister publicity gave her the title of Haramkhor Ladki- bastard girl, because she said after a murder she felt unsafe in Mumbai, and questioned where were INTOLERANCE debate warriors.  My mother added that Kangana arrived in Mumbai on September 9 from her hometown Manali because the Maharashtra government all of a sudden passed an order to demolish “illegally” built portions of her office in Mumbai. However, Bombay High court stayed the demolition drive and the next hearing will be on 22nd September. Due to this ongoing controversy, Kangana was also given Y-plus security by the Centre. It feels that in this male dominant world which is dominated by the powerful, people do not have the right to put forward their opinions and even if they dare do so, they have to face the wrath of the big fishes in the pond. After my parents went on and on about it for a while, I requested them to change the topic and I put on a comedy movie on the TV because it seemed like a futile conversation.
