Kangana Ranaut has now directed blows at online encyclopaedia Wikipedia, alleging that it has been ‘totally hijacked by leftists’. She made the recent claims via a social media post on Thursday morning after clarifying that information about her on the site was inaccurate.
In a long written note on Instagram stories, Kangana Ranaut slammed the free encyclopaedia as she wrote, “Wikipedia is totally hijacked by leftists,most of the information about me like my birthday or my hight or background is totally wrong ... no matter how much we try to rectify it it's warped again.” ALSO READ | Kangana Ranaut Slams GenZ, Claims They Are Too Lazy To Have Sex And Hate To Commit Or Marry; Actress Says, ‘They Are Like Gajar Muli’
She shared the reason behind her post and said that Wikipedia had listed her birthday as March 20 when in fact, it falls on March 23.

Kangana Ranaut added, “Anyway many radio channels, fans clubs and well wishers start to send birthday greetings on 20th March.... I don't mind but honestly many are confused because Wikipedia says my birthday is on 20th March and I celebrate on 23rd March, my birthday is on 23rd March ... please don't go back Wikipedia it's totally wrong and misleading information there.”
For those unversed, Wikipedia is a free online encyclopaedia that is run, edited, and regulated by online volunteers from across the world. It is hosted by the Wikimedia Foundation, a not-for-profit organisation. Over the years, it has come to be considered the go-to source for information online but has come under criticism for being easy to manipulate.
Meanwhile, on the professional front, Kangana recently wrapped the shoot of her upcoming film Chandramukhi 2, a Tamil-Hindi bilngual which also stars Raghava Lawrence. The film is a sequel to Rajinikanth’s 2005 blockbuster Chandramukhi but the actor is not reprising his role in the second part.
