For the unversed, The Last Supper is a mural painting by the Italian High Renaissance artist Leonardo da Vinci, dated to c. 1495–1498, housed in the refectory of the Convent of Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan, Italy. The depiction of the painting showed a young performer joining drag queens during the act, which also included a naked man painted blue as Jesus. Kangana claimed that leftists had completely taken over the 2024 Olympics and expressed her disapproval.
Kangana wrote, "The Paris Olympics is under fire for including a child in their hyper- s*xualized, blasphemous rendition of The Last Supper.
Apparently child could be seen joining the drag queens during the performance. They also showed a naked man painted blue as Jesus and mocked Christianity. Leftists totally hijacked the Olympics in 2024. Shame."
Kangana Ranaut also posted a picture of a man covered in blue paint. The actor commented that it depicted a naked body painted as Christ at the Paris Olympics opening. She shared another image, questioning whether this is how France chose to welcome the world to the 2024 Olympics and wondering about the message behind such acts. She asked if this was meant to portray a world aligned with Satan.
