The war of words between Taapsee Pannu and Kangana Ranaut continues. In the aftermath of Kangana's explosive interview with the Republic Media Network, the social media either stands with Kangana or supports actors like Taapsee, Swara Bhasker, or Richa Chadha. In the latest development, Taapsee responded to a user who called out Kangana for her hypocrisy and called it 'harassment'.

The user wrote, "Kangana: Alia made fun of fellow actor Sushant Singh Rajput in Karan Johar’s show on National TV. How would he have felt watching it? Also Kangana on National TV: Swara and Taapsee are B Grade Actors" To this, Taapsee wrote, "I guess the answer is given loud n clear, on how exactly it feels. Reactions might differ person to person but harassment is harassment n should be treated in same light." [sic]
