Earlier in December 2019, Rangoli targeted Alia Bhatt and accused her of fixing the Best Actor award. She later challenged Alia Bhatt to have an acting face-off with Kangana Ranaut. Meanwhile, Alia Bhatt never responded to the tweets in which Rangoli slammed her.  Apart from Rangoli, Kangana Ranaut's remark on Alia's performance in Gully Boy during the promotions of Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi also grabbed the headlines. Reportedly, Kangana was quoted saying that Alia's work in Gully Boy was mediocre.
