Kangana Ranaut's tweets on farmers' protests and farm bills have drawn attention from all quarters. While many have supported the actress for being fearless and standing up for what she thinks is right, another section have slammed the actress for calling out farmers. On Thursday, another report related to Kangana's tweets on farmers surfaced. The actress took to Twitter to respond to the same and asserted her opinion saying that she has no interest in joining politics. 

According to a news agency report , Congress leaders in Madhya Pradesh's Betul district have threatened to stall the shoot of Kangana's film Dhaakad in MP if the actress did not apologize to farmers over her tweets. However, BJP leader and state home minister Narottam Mishra assured that the government will ensure that "behan- beti" Kangana faces no problem while shooting, reported a news agency. 

Kiara Advani, who made her acting debut with Fugly in 2014, has come a long way in Bollywood despite being an outsider.

In 2020, she was part of a web film Guilty and then she was also seen in Laxmii and Indoo Ki Jawaani.

Now, for this year, she has Jug Jugg Jeeyo, Shershaah and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 in her kitty. In a recent conversation with the Hindustan Times, the beautiful actress opened up about her acceptance in Bollywood, cut-throat competition in the film industry and more.

When asked about peer pressure with such cut-throat competition, Kiara said that from the beginning of her career, she always knew the kind of films she wanted to do, even though she didn’t have many choices back then but she waited patiently. “Today, fortunately, there are more options and choices. But I must admit, with more options, the choice becomes even harder. And I’m the kind of person who wants to do it all, who wants to try it all out,” she added.

After the news of the tragic incident started doing rounds, Bollywood stars like Kareena Kapoor Khan, Abhishek Kapoor, Kangana Ranaut, Dia Mirza, and many others sent out their prayers on social media for the well being of the people affected by this tragic incident.

'The Centre should not have put reputation of Sachin Tendulkar and Lata Mangeshkar at stake by asking them to tweet in support of its stand', said Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray. Notably, Thackeray was speaking about the ongoing controversy that erupted after the Master Blaster joined the bandwagon of actors, sportspersons, and politicians tweeting on the country's unity and farmers following international pop singer Rihanna's tweet.

"Govt shouldn't have asked big personalities like Sachin Tendulkar & Lata Mangeshkar to tweet in support of its stand & put their reputation at stake. They're recipients of Bharat Ratna. Actors like Akshay Kumar were enough for this task", said Thackeray.
He also trained his guns on PM Modi saying that the latter's slogan in support of former US President Donald Trump was 'problematic'.
