After a series of controversial tweets, actor Kangana Ranaut’s Twitter account has been permanently suspended.
In the tweet that may have caused the action against Kangana Ranaut, the actor seems to urge Prime Minister Narendra Modi to “tame” Mamata Banerjee using his “Virat Roop” from “early 2000s” in Bengal. Ms Ranaut was reacting to a tweet by journalist-politician Swapan Dasgupta on the violence in Bengal after election results on Sunday.
Her response caused outrage on the social media platform and demands grew for action against the actor.
Kangana Ranaut has posted a rant on her Instagram account but has not yet said anything on her Twitter account being suspended.
The actor, in a tearful rant, talks about “disturbing news, videos and photos from Bengal of people being murdered, gang-raped and their houses being burnt”. She also calls for President’s Rule.
Meanwhile, Kangana is also facing flak from netizens for saying that people using oxygen cylinders amid coronavirus should ‘return’ their share back to nature.
“Everybody is building more and more oxygen plants, getting tons and tons of oxygen cylinders, how are we compensating for all the oxygen that we are forcefully drawing from the environment? It seems we learnt nothing from our mistakes and catastrophes they cause #PlantTrees,” she wrote on Twitter recently.
The actor is always in the news for her controversial and pro-establishment stands. She has, on numerous occasions, openly supported the Narendra Modi-led government and criticized the opposition parties.
