Kangana Ranaut got into a heated argument with a journalist at Judgementall Hai Kya song launch. Ranaut accused the PTI reporter of running a smear campaign against her and her film 'Manikarnika'.

Kangana fired the journalist at the event and said: "Tum toh humare dushman ban gaye ho yaar....badi gandi batein likhte ho. Tum kitna ganda sochte ho! Tum itni gandi soch rakhte ho. Jingoistic bolte ho. Itni gandi soch laate kahan se ho? You are bashing my film Manikarnika. Have I made a mistake by making a film? You are calling me a jingoistic person for making a film on nationalism."

The journalist defended himself and told her that she was 'intimidating' him. "This is not the right way to intimidate a journalist just because you are at such a powerful position," he said. To this Kangana said she was only being 'candid'.
