Kangana Ranaut's Twitter thread
Mehta’s tweet comes after Kangana compared herself to Meryl Streep in terms of the range of talent she showcases. Kangana shared two stills from her upcoming films Thalaivi and Dhaakad and called it a ‘massive transformation alert’. She said in the tweet that she has ‘raw talent’ like Meryl and also challenged people to prove otherwise and if someone succeeds, she will accept her statements as a part of ‘gloating disorder’. She also tweeted that she could do ‘skilled action’ and ‘glamour’ like Gal Gaddot can. Furthermore, she also has boasted that she is better than Tom Cruise when it comes to action. The internet appears divided on its opinions on Kangana’s claims. She recently also took a dig at 'leading filmmakers' and tweeted that many started their career with her but later run after industry stalwarts.
Massive transformation alert, The kind of range I display as a performer no other actress on this globe has that right now, I have raw talent like Meryl Streep for layered character depictions but I can also do skilled action and glamour like Gal Gadot #Thalaivi #Dhaakad pic.twitter.com/fnW3D20o6K

I am open for debate if anyone can show me more range and brilliance of craft than me by any other actress on this planet I promise to give up my arrogance, until then I can surely afford the luxury of pride #Thalaivi #Dhaakad pic.twitter.com/0RXB1FcM43

Many of India’s leading filmmakers started their careers with me, when they become successful then they only go after Khans, Kapoors or Kumars. Dear friends when our chief @RazyGhai becomes a top filmmaker please remind him to do women centric films also once in a while #Dhaakad pic.twitter.com/jFoAQzhmWM
