A few years back, when the actress had appeared on Karan Johar's talk show, 'Koffee With Karan', she called him the 'flag-bearer of nepotism' and implied that he runs a clique in the film industry. She also used terms such as 'movie mafia' and stated that he is 'snooty and completely intolerant to outsiders'.

And it hasn't been a week since Karan seemed to have taken a dig at Kangana in an interview to YouTuber Bhuvan Bam. On the show, he said that while he doesn’t love the subject of nepotism, ‘someone else does’. He said, “I don’t love this subject, somebody else does. So I have left it to that person to do all the talking and I will continue to do my job.”

She also went on to call them 'exclusive people' and also said that because of them, words such as 'nepotism' and 'outsider' are being used extensively in Bollywood. 

For the uninitiated, the actress was heavily criticised by the netizens by using a mechanical horse video for shooting one of the scenes of her latest film. In the video, Kangana is seen riding a ‘fake horse’ which gallops on a trolley dug in the ground
