Kangana Ranaut's recent tweet on a viral Muharram video has sparked controversy where the actress talks about how Hindu men should learn combat training to survive
Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut who is now a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Member of Parliament from Mandi, Himachal Pradesh, recently stirred controversy with her comments on a video related to Muharram. She shared a video on her social media handle, X (formerly Twitter), depicting hundreds of Muslims engaging in self-flagellation during the Muharram observance. The video shows men drenched in blood as they whip themselves with lashes and swords. Kangana described the scene as "weird and scary" and questioned if Hindu men should undergo "combat training" to survive in such a world.

In her post, Kangana wrote, "This is weird and scary but to survive in a world like this should Hindu men also do some kind of compulsory combat training?" She further added, "Looking at the scenarios around there is no harm in keeping your blood hot… is there?" Her remarks quickly drew backlash from various quarters. Many netizens criticized her for allegedly inciting violence and promoting divisive rhetoric. One user tagged the Himachal Pradesh police, accusing Kangana of instigating Hindus and calling for her arrest under section 126 of BNSS for allegedly intending to disturb societal peace and harmony. Another user reminded her of her responsibilities as an MP and advised her to refrain from making such provocative statements. ALSO READ: Emergency Release Date CONFIRMED!

This isn't the first time Kangana has faced criticism for her outspoken views. Recently, she attracted ire for her comments on the opening ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympics. She labeled the event's performances as "hyper-sexualized and blasphemous." The controversy stemmed from a drag performance that apparently reimagined The Last Supper, which many found offensive. Kangana shared an image from the ceremony and expressed her disapproval, stating that the event seemed to be overly focused on homosexuality.
Kangana's comments were not well recieved on social media as netizens suggested the actress-politician not to instigate hatred among the Hindus. Well, what are your thoughts on the Queen actress' Tweet?
