In a surprise move, actress Kangana Ranaut has decided to sue a leading magazine after they invited her friends to their awards night and wanted to award her the Best Actress for her film Thalaivii. However, Kangana, in return, has decided to sue them. Yes, you read it right.
Explaining her decision, she shared a long note on her Instagram Stories and wrote, “I’ve banned unethical, corrupt and totally unfair practices like @filmfare since 2014, but since I have been getting many calls from them for attending their award function this year as they want to give me award for Thalaivii… I am shocked to know that they are still nominating me.”
She further added, “It is beneath my dignity, work ethics and value system to encourage such corrupt practices in anyway, that is why I have decided to sue @filmfare … thanks.”
Kangana is nominated for Best Actress in a Leading Role this year for Thalaivii alongside Kiara Advani, Kriti Sanon, Parineeti Chopra, Taapsee Pannu and Vidya Balan.
Not only Filmfare, but earlier Kangana had also called for a boycott of Oscars and Emmys when they didn’t pay tribute to Lata Mangeshkar. She wrote, “We must take strong stands against any local awards who claim to be international and yet ignore and intentionally sideline legendary artists because of their race or ideologies… both Oscar and Grammy failed to give tribute to Bharat Ratna Lata Mangeshkar Ji… our media should totally boycott these biased local events who claim to be global awards. We should boycott these snooty western awards.”
Meanwhile, on the work front, Kangana is currently gearing up for her next film titled Emergency, where she will be essaying the role of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. The film also features Anupam Kher and Mahima Chaudhry.
