Actor Kangana Ranaut while speaking to Republic TV yesterday (19 August) took on Naseeruddin Shah for his "half-educated starlet' comment by saying that he is angry on her because she praised Hinduism and Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Naseeruddin Shah had condescendingly criticised Kangana a few days ago by saying that, "No one is interested in the opinion of some half-educated starlet who takes it upon herself to get justice for Sushant..".
After his comments stirred up a row, Kangana responded to him while speaking to Arnab Goswami by saying that people like Naseeruddin Shah work towards a particular political agenda.
Kangana added that people like Naseeruddin Shah are angry at her because she praised Hinduism and is a proud Hindu.
"Naseeruddin Shah does not think that I am a half-educated starlet, he is angry because I praised Modi ji and Hinduism and because I am proud of my religion and background...rather than being ashamed of it", said Kangana.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
