If I were to choose alternate careers for people in the industry, besides suggesting Karan Johar become an official match-maker and Ranveer Singh, a stylist, I would most definitely also suggest actress Kangana Ranaut become a journalist, because either way that woman knows how to break headlines. And this time around she did so by directly attacking 'those in power'.

Yet again in the news with another controversy, Manikarnika actress Kangana Ranaut turned up to the Khar police station in Mumbai today morning in connection with the FIR that was lodged against her for her remarks about the farmer’s protest.

Being the unapologetic and unabashed person she is, when the farmers came together to protest against the farmers' laws passed in September 2020, the actress didn't shy away from giving her two cents. 

In fact, she gave more than just her two cents, for she passed rather controversial and allegedly ‘provoking’ remarks about the protests. Which in turn, invited an FIR against her for being insensitive.

The actress was supposed to show up for questioning at the police station on the 22nd of December, however, she could not make it. Instead, the actress showed up at the Khar police station today dressed in a floral saree.

However, what really caught attention was not so much as her appearance at the station, but what came after - a post on social media. 

Taking to her Instagram account, Kangana Ranaut posted a story with a caption that read, “Another day, another visit to the police station. Hundreds of politically motivated FIR and hours of questioning."

The actress went on to take a direct dig at those in power as she said, “This country continues to ill-treat and devalue nationalists and if you love your nation, you are on your own against a very powerful enemy. Those in power would prioritise vote banks and for that, they can encourage terrorism. So it's a lonely road and guess what? It's alright #jaihind.”

The FIR, in question, was filed by a Sikh organisation that claimed that Kangana, through her Instagram post, had portrayed the farmers' protest on Delhi borders as a ‘Khalistani movement’ This is also not the only FIR against the actress till now. 

Meanwhile, on the work front, Kangana Ranaut has a line-up of films like Tejas, Dhaakad and Sita: The Incarnation.
