Kangana Ranaut’s hard-hitting video
In a hard-hitting video, Kanga Ranaut was heard saying, “Since the time I have been talking for the country’s welfare, I am being attacked and abused. My house was demolished illegally. So many cases have been filed against me for talking about the farmers, and one case is just for laughing."
She added, "At the beginning of corona, my sister Rangoli ji had raised her voice about the atrocities doctors faced, so they filed a case on her too. Even my name was put in it, though I was not even on Twitter then, such things happen."

Kangana continued, "Honourable Chief Justice rejected this and stated that it did not hold merit. With the order, I was also asked to appear before the police station, and no one has told me what kind of an appearance it is."

The Queen star continued, "I am also being told not to talk about the atrocities or tell anyone about it. So I want to ask the Supreme Court if it is the medieval age where women are burnt alive, and they can’t even talk about it. Such things are happening in front of the world."
She concluded, "All I want to say to the people who are watching this tamasha is that the kind of tears of blood that we suffered during 100 years of slavery will have to be dealt with again if nationalist voices are asked to shut up.”
