Actress-politician Kangana Ranaut, who will be next seen in Emergency, recently grabbed headlines when she called veteran actress and MP Jaya Bachchan ‘arrogant’ over being called by her complete name in the assembly. However, the Manikarnika star seems to have left everything behind as she recently called Jaya Bachchan a dignified actress. “Jaya Bachchan ji is a very reputed actor in our film industry.
Honestly, she’s known for her short temper, but at the same time, I’d like to give her the acknowledgment and due credit. In those times—you can imagine, in the 1970s, when women had to roast their skin under harsh lighting—she did films like ‘Guddi’. She sent a message of women empowerment through that.
And even after that...
she’s one of the most dignified women in the film industry. The way she carries herself in Rajya Sabha makes me feel very good that we have this kind of representation from the film industry,” said Kangana while talking to News18. Earlier in an interview with Fever FM, Kangana had slammed Jaya and said, “A man is a man, and a woman is a woman, and togetherness is a beautiful happening.
These are petty issues. In the name of feminism, people are going in an ugly direction..
. Society is going into an ugly direction,” the actress added. Calling Jaya’s behaviour as ‘arrogance’, Kangana asserted, “This arrogance hasn’t spared even the beautiful bond within families.
Humans should embrace each other and not dissect each othe.
