Actress and BJP MP Kangana Ranaut has once again stirred controversy with her recent Instagram post, where she has lashed out at the film industry for their silence following an incident where she was slapped at the airport by a CISF jawan.
Kangana, known for her bold and outspoken nature, did not hold back in expressing her disappointment and anger towards her colleagues in the industry.
In her post, she wrote, "Dear film industry, you all are either celebrating or are totally mum on the airport attack on me."
She continued by warning them about the potential consequences of their inaction. "Remember if tomorrow, if you walking disarmingly on some street of your country or anywhere else in the world and some Israeli/Palestinian hits you or your children just because you tried to bring eyes to Rafah or stood up for Israeli hostage... then you will see I will be fighting for your rights of free speech."
Kangana’s reference to Rafah and Israeli hostages adds a layer of complexity to her message, indicating her broader concerns about human rights and free speech. She implies that her advocacy for these causes is unwavering, even if those she supports do not reciprocate.
She concluded her post with a pointed remark, "If someday you wonder why I am where I am, remember you are not me."
The reaction to her post has been mixed, with some supporting her stance and others criticising her for bringing geopolitical issues into a personal incident.
Kangana’s outburst is not an isolated incident; she has a history of speaking out against perceived injustices and has often found herself at the centre of controversies. Her fearless approach to calling out what she sees as wrong has won her both admirers and detractors.
In this latest episode, Kangana’s frustration is palpable. The film industry’s silence, in her view, is a tacit acceptance or celebration of the violence she endured. Her call to action is clear: she will continue to fight for free speech and rights, regardless of whether she receives support from her peers. This stance positions her as a lone warrior, undeterred by the lack of solidarity from those within her industry.
Kangana's post not only highlights the personal betrayal she feels but also brings to light broader issues of support and advocacy within the film industry. Her message is a stark reminder of the importance of standing up against injustice, no matter who the victim is. Her willingness to speak out, even when it may not be popular or supported, underscores her commitment to her principles and her fearless nature.
This incident and her subsequent post will likely fuel further debates and discussions about the responsibilities and roles of public figures in advocating for one another and standing up against wrongdoings. Kangana's strong words serve as a powerful call to her colleagues to reflect on their actions and inactions, and the potential impact these have on their community and beyond.
