Many actors-turned-politicians contested this year`s general elections from different constituencies, where they saw an incredible response. While some continue to dominate in their region, it wasn`t that fruitful for other stars.
However, the Tanu Weds Manu actress continues to rule Mandi, Himachal Pradesh, as she is about 40,000 votes ahead of her arch-rival in the constituency. This marks her debut in Indian politics.
Amid the Lok Sabha election results, let`s have a look at some of Kangana Ranaut`s most controversial and shocking tweets that took the internet by storm.
Karan Johar and Alia Bhatt spoke about how love triumphs over hate, and Kangana warned the industry not to mix politics with movies.
Taking it to X (formerly known as Twitter), she wrote, "Bollywood walon yeh narrative banane ki koshish mat karna ki iss desh mein tum Hindu hate se suffer kar rahe ho, agar maine phir se yeh word suna `triumph over hate` toh tum logon ki wahi class lagegi jo kal lagi thi (Bollywood people, do not try to project that you are suffering from Hindu hate in this country. If I hear another comment on `triumph over hate`, I will take your class). Enjoy your success and do good work; stay away from politics."
In March 2021, an X user predicted, “Mark my tweet! Kangana Ranaut will fight by-election from Mandi Lok Sabha Constituency.” For the uninitiated, Himachal is her hometown.

Replying to the same tweet, the Gangster actress wrote, “I was given the option of Gwalior during the 2019 Lok Sabha elections. The HP (Himachal Pradesh) population is hardly 60–70 lakh, with no poverty or crime. If I get into politics, I want a state with complexities I can work on and be the queen in that field as well. Small fry like you won’t understand big talks.”
"I don`t consume beef or any other kind of red meat; it is shameful that completely baseless rumors are being spread about me. I have been advocating and promoting a yogic and Ayurvedic way of life for decades now; such tactics won`t work to tarnish my image," the Queen actress said.
She further added, "My people know me, and they know that I am a proud Hindu, and nothing can ever mislead them, Jai Shri Ram."
