Recently, in an interview, popular Bhojpuri superstar and BJP MP from East Delhi Manoj Tiwari was asked about his take on Bollywood superstar Kangana Ranaut. 

When asked “Kangana Ranaut kaisi lagti hai aapko?” on the YouTube channel Unfiltered by Samdish, a reluctant Manoj initially replied, “Woh dekho uske baare mein kuch bhi kehna theek nahin hai. (It isn’t right saying anything about her.)” 

When asked if he is scared of her, Manoj responded in negative and added, “Humein aisa lagta hai apne vichaar ko itna bhi blasting mat rakho…ki ussey directly hit kar deti hain. (I feel one shouldn’t be as aggressive in sharing their opinion that it hits people below the belt.)”

He was then asked to explain his statement further by sharing an example. Manoj then replied, “Ek artist ka bhi apna dharm hota hai. Ya toh rajneeti mein aa gaye ho toh fir bolo sab khul ke. Dekho Sushant ke samay mein woh jitni baatein karti thi toh samajh mein aati thi. Thoda Maharashtra sarkar ka bhi unke prati ravaiya bahut hard ho gaya. Woh bhi theek nahin tha. (If you have joined politics then it is fine but as an artist one should be a bit dignified. When she shared her views during Sushant Singh Rajput’s demise those were understandable. Also, the Maharashtra government’s response to Kangan was a bit hard. It was not right.) ” 

He further continued, “Ek maryada ka paalan karna chahiye (Kangana ko). Apni baat kaho but kisi ko anaadar se naam lena hamaare desh ki sanskriti nahin hai. (Kangana should be within sensible limits. She has the right to voice her opinion but to use disrespectful language against someone isn’t in our culture and tradition.)”

“Kisi ko bhi, koi mukhya mantri ke pad pe hai toh usko samman dena aavashyak hai. Koi pradhan mantri ke pad pe hai toh aur bhi jo log hamaare pradhan mantri ko is tarah se bolte hain, unko bhi bolna chahta hoon, yeh theek nahin hai. Desh ke pradhan mantri, mukhya mantri aur bhi bade padon pe baithe vyaktiyon ka aap virodh kariya agar karna hai lekin bhasha maryadit honi chahiye. Usmein Kangana apni bhasha kabhi kabhi maryada kho deti hain. (People should respect the Chief Minister of a state, the Prime Minister of a country. There are people who use foul language for our PM, that is also wrong. The PM, CMs and other people at big positions in our country should be treated with respect even when you are criticising them. Kangana, sometimes, loses her dignity and uses foul language.)” 

Take a look at the video below: 

Manoj Tiwari was insinuating towards Kangana’s 2020 Twitter rant where she had lashed out at Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray and had called him “the worse product of nepotism”. 

In a series of tweets, she had stated, “Raut called me Haramkhor now Uddhav called me namak haram, he is claiming I won’t get food in my state if Mumbai does not give me shelter, shame on you I am your son’s age this is how you speak to a self made single woman, Chief Minister you are the worse product of nepotism.”

She had also added, “Chief Minister I am not drunk on my father’s power and wealth like you, if I wanted to be a nepotism product I could have stayed back in Himachal, I hail from a renowned family, I didn’t want to live off on their wealth and favours, some people have self respect and self worth.” 

Here’s wondering what Kangana has to say about Manoj Tiwari’s criticism of her use of undignified language.
