Kangana Ranaut took to Twitter to raise concern over a photo of a girl wearing short western clothes to the Baijnath Temple in Kangra, Himachal Pradesh. A tweet shared on the attire of people at a temple prompted the Queen actress to request ‘stricter rules’ for dress code at religious places. Kangana took to her social media to express displeasure over the girl wearing shorts to the temple. 

A tweet shared on May 25 featured a photo of two women dressed casually on the premises of Baijnath Temple. The tweet mentioned that short or casual outfits should not be allowed inside the temple spaces. Kangana reposted the tweet sharing her experience when she visited the Vatican. 

Kangana recalls her experience in the Vatican 

Vatican City, the holy city of Christianity, houses various churches, which Kangana mentioned she had visited. Talking about wearing ‘short clothes’ at religious places, Kangana shared her experience from the time when she was wore similar clothes at the Vatican and was asked to change them and come back. On Thursday morning, the Manikarnika actress wrote, “These are western clothes, invented and promoted by white people, I was once at the Vatican wearing shorts and T-shirt, I wasn’t even allowed in the premises, I had to go back to my hotel and change…. These clowns who wear night dresses like they are casuals are nothing but lazy and lame ….. I don’t think they are capable of having any other intention but there should be strict rules for such fools ….."
