Kangana Ranaut is at the backlash peak as she has now come face to face with angry tweets not just from netizens but from celebrities too.
Ranaut had earlier tweeted about not trusting the Mumbai Police and will prefer protection from the Himachal government or the Centre.
Post that remark, Shiv Sena’s Sanjay Raut asked her not to come back if she is scared of Mumbai Police. To this, Kangana then reacted with a tweet comparing Mumbai to PoK.

Swara Bhaskar also has a word or two to put in after Kangana compared Mumbai to a ‘Pakistan occupied Kashmir’.
Bhaskar says Mumbai is one of the easiest and safest cities to live and work in.
Speaking to TOI, Bhaskar also said, “I have never been to PoK, so I don’t know what it feels like but to call India’s most dynamic city, financial capital and a city that has changed the lives and destinies of so many people- including hers .. to abuse that city and compare it to PoK because you want to create a headline is just petty, ungrateful and frankly ludicrous. If a Muslim actor has made this comparison and said they feel unsafe we would have been baying for their blood.“
