"As this is a well-known fact that Kangana Ranaut hails from Himachal Pradesh, this commission intends to take up the issue with your office for taking up the matter with appropriate authorities, the Himachal panel said.

Furthermore, a copy of the letter has also been sent to the member secretary of the Maharashtra State Commission for Women.
