The actress is always unabashed and unfiltered while expressing her socio-political opinions. As her movie Tejas is based on patriotic theme, Kangana never hesitates while condemning terrorism and always calls a spade a spade. Howeever, Prakash Raj and Deepa Mehta, equally known for their strong statements on cultural and geopolitical issues are active on social media. Prakash, who has been critical of the Narendra Modi government has also slammed Akshay Kumar in the past. The latter had condemned Richa Chadha’s statement on Indian army. Now, as Kangana urged audiences to come to theatres by pointing out at low footfalls, the Wanted and Dabanng 2 villain mocked her.

PRAKASH RAJ TAKES A SLY JIBE AT KANGANA RANAUT
Kangana had said, “Even before Covid, theatrical footfalls were dipping drastically post covid it has become seriously rapid. Many theatres are shutting down and even after free tickets and many reasonable offers drastic footfall decline is continuing. Requesting people to watch films in theatres and enjoy with family and friends or else they (theatres) won’t be able to survive. Thanks (sic).” Prakash took a sly jibe at her and captioned his tweet as, “India has got Independence just recently in 2014… please wait ..it will pick up.. #justasking.” His post was directed towards the Tejas actress’ claim that the country got the real independence after the BJP government took over since 2014.
