Mumbai, Sep 14: Actress and politician Kangana Ranaut has addressed Rakhi Sawant's recent harsh comments directed at her. On Monday, Kangana utilized her Instagram Stories to share a screenshot of a report featuring Rakhi's statements.

Kangana expressed her thoughts in a detailed note aimed at Rakhi, asserting that despite her efforts, Rakhi is unable to secure even a basic job.

She stated, “Not only her but many successful yet bitter individuals are quick to tarnish the reputation of accomplished women to mask their own jealousy, failures, and egos. It's time we stop being susceptible to these frequent, intentional attacks and public character assassinations. We must cease feeling humiliated and stop over-explaining ourselves.”

Additionally, she remarked, “So yes, my dear followers! Even if you are willing to do anything for success, the unfortunate truth is that no one requires anything from you. Remember, all your favors combined have not even earned you a sweeper's position, which requires some skill and talent. So, rest assured, whether you offer favors or not, you aren't advancing anywhere. Just sit back, watch my reels, and keep crying (sic).”

Kangana's remarks followed Rakhi Sawant's controversial comments during a podcast, where she made inappropriate insinuations about BJP leaders, suggesting that both Kangana and Smriti Irani have questionable pasts that contributed to their political ascension.

This isn't the first instance of Rakhi targeting Kangana with personal insults. During the CJP protests controversy, Rakhi referred to Kangana as a “chudail” and a “gutter mouth” in response to Kangana's remarks about the younger generation.

Kangana is well-known for her candidness and her ability to retaliate against those who cross boundaries with her.
