Vishal Krishna lauds Kangana for 'setting an example', compares her to martyr Bhagat Singh

Tollywood actor Vishal Krishna Reddy took to Twitter and penned an empowering note for Bollywood actor Kangana Ranaut amid her tussle with Maharashtra government. He lauded the 'Queen' actor for speaking up against the government on what is wrong even though it wasn't a personal issue. Further, he likened Kangana's act to what Indian revolutionary Bhagat Singh did in the 1920s.

Here's what Vishal wrote:

"Hats off to your guts, you have never thought twice to voice out what is right & what is wrong. It wasn't your personal issue, but even then facing the wrath of the Government, you stayed strong which makes it a very big example. It's something similar to what Bhagat Singh did in 1920s. 

This will set an example for people to speak against the Govt when something is not right and not necessarily being a celebrity but also as a common man.

Kudos to you, I bow to you.. GB"
