Actor Kangana Ranaut, in a series of tweets on Thursday morning, launched a scathing attack on Maharashtra Chief Minister and Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray a day after Sena-ruled BMC demolished parts of her Bandra office. Calling Uddhav Thackeray "a sample of dynasty", the actor asked, "how many voices will you try to suppress?"
'A sample of the dynasty'
“Your father's good deeds can give you wealth, but you have to earn respect. You will shut my mouth, but my voice will echo in hundreds and lakhs of people after me. How many mouths will you shut? How many voices will you suppress? Till when you will run away from the truth? You are nothing but a sample of a dynasty,” she said in a tweet in Hindi.

On Wednesday, hours after returning from her hometown in Himachal Pradesh, Kangana Ranaut addressed Uddhav Thackeray and posted a video message saying his "ego will be destroyed" the way her Bandra office was demolished.
"Uddhav Thackeray, 'tujhe kya lagta hai' (what do you think)?. You think you have taken huge revenge by destroying my house in collusion with the movie mafia. Today my house is destroyed, tomorrow it will be your ego. The wheels of time keep changing," she said in a video message in Hindi.

In a post after the video, Ranaut wrote, "Come Uddhav Thackeray and Karan Johar Gang. You broke my workplace, come now break my house, then break my face and body, I want the world to see clearly what you anyway do underhand, whether I live or die I will expose you regardless."
BMC razes 'majority of alterations' at Kangana's office
The Shiv Sena-ruled BMC on Wednesday pulled down "most of" the alleged illegal alterations at the Bandra office of Kangana Ranaut by the time the Bombay High Court ordered a stay on the process. According to a civic official, the demolition at Ranaut's Pali Hill office started around 11 am and continued for the next one-and-a-half hours, till the high court passed the order.

On Tuesday morning, the BMC had issued a stop-work notice to the "ongoing renovation and finishing work" of Ranaut's office on Nargis Dutt Road. On Wednesday morning, the civic body posted another notice outside her bungalow, informing her about the action it would be taking.

Ranaut's recent remark comparing Mumbai to Pakistan- occupied-Kashmir (PoK) has drawn the ire of the ruling Shiv Sena. She had said that she feared Mumbai Police more than the "movie mafia", and would prefer security either from Himachal Pradesh or the Centre. The 33-year-old actor, who returned to Mumbai on Wednesday afternoon from her home state Himachal Pradesh, alleged that the Maharashtra government was targeting her because of her clash with the Shiv Sena.
NCP supremo Sharad Pawar is also said to have voiced his displeasure at the 'hasty' action in a face-to-face meeting with CM Uddhav at the latter's Varsha Bungalow on Wednesday evening.
