Following Taapsee Pannu’s indirect jab at her today, Kangana Ranaut has issued a strongly-worded tweet as response, continuing the long feud between the two stars.

Earlier today, Taapsee broke her silence on the raid by the Income Tax Department on her property, by taking to Twitter to issue a string of counter-allegations.

With a cheeky postscript, she ended her series of Tweets saying, “not so sasti anymore,” which seems to be a response to a particular comment made by Kangana Ranaut's sister Rangoli Chandel.

In a reply to Taapsee's Tweets, Kangana shot back with a strongly-worded post.

"You will always remain sasti because you are sab rapists ka feminist... your ring master (Anurag) Kashyap was raided in 2013 as well for tax chori... government official’s report is out if you aren’t guilty go to court against them come clean on this ... come on sasti," she wrote.

In another tweet, Kangana then proceeded to call Taapsee a ‘monkey’ who was just doing ‘tamasha’.

Taapsee’s response comes three days after the IT raids on her and filmmaker Anurag Kashyap over alleged tax evasion. According to reports, both were reportedly by officials in Pune and the searches took place across 30 locations in Mumbai and Pune.

The raids were also conducted on Kashyap’s partners who launched the now-shuttered production house, Phantom Films.

When Nirmala Sitharaman was asked to comment on the raids, she spoke of how the ‘2013 raids’ were not an issue and how suddenly, they seem to have become one now.

"First of all, I am not commenting on any A or B individual. (But) since the names were taken, (I want to say) the very same names were raided in 2013. It wasn’t an issue (in 2013). It’s an issue now,” the Finance Minister said in a media interaction.
