Bollywood’s idea of a fiery girl, woman empowerment and good acting, spare me this embarrassment, please. Media has taken filmy kids love too far...stop pampering mediocre work or else bar will never be raised."

This is t first time Kangana Ranaut has attacked Alia Bhatt. Recently, she lashed out against actress saying she didn't support her film 'Manikarnika'. Kangana told entertainment website and said: “I reached out to Alia (Bhatt) and asked her what makes her think Manikarnika is my personal controversy, it’s a film whole nation is talking about and wondering why Bollywood is keeping quiet on such a relevant work......"

She furr called Alia Karan Johar's puppet and said: "I asked her if I can be courteous and gracious to ackwledge her requests for encouraging relevant work that she does, why is she so scared to see my film. I suggested that she grows some spine and support an important film about woman empowerment and nationalism....if she doesn’t have a voice of her own and her existence is all about being KJo (Karan Johar) puppet n I don’t consider her successful... I told her if she is only focusing on earning bucks and t raise a voice, n her success has value.... hope she understands true meaning of success and her responsibilities, Napo gang life is simply restricted to give and take favours hope she rises above that.”

As I have said before, I really admire her as an actor and choices that she makes. She’s a very outspoken person and I admire her for that as well. If I have upset her unintentionally, n I don’t kw. Basically, it wasn’t my intention. I didn’t do anything to get a reaction like this."
