Kangana Ranaut sparked another controversy with a โPakistan-occupied Kashmirโ reference to Mumbai as she hit back at Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut for asking her not to return to the city. The statement became a talking point, for and against the actor, and celebrities also joined in by posting cryptic notes about Mumbai. Renuka Shahane urged the Tanu Weds Manu star to respect the city she was working in, and the latter asked if the former also wanted a โpiece of her meat.โ
Kangana Ranaut responds to Renuka Shahaneโs post on Mumbai
Kangana Ranaut replied to Renukaโs post by asking if criticising the โpoor administration of a governmentโ was โequal to the place being administeredโ. The National Award winner wrote that she did not consider Renuka โnaiveโ to draw the reference. She then asked if the Hum Aapke Hai Koun actor was also waiting like a โbloodthirsty vulture to pounceโ on her and โget a piece of her meat.โ Kangana added that she โexpected betterโ from Renuka.
Dear @renukash ji when did criticising the poor administration of a government became equal to the place being administered , I donโt believe you are that naive, were you also waiting like a blood thirsty vulture to pounce and get a piece of my meat ? Expected better from you ๐ https://t.co/wkR7u05rTB

Renuka responded that she supports the criticism of governments and that the statement โwhy Mumbai is feeling like POKโ made her make a โdirect comparisonโ, and termed it in โbad taste.โ She added that she did not like it, being a native of Mumbai and that she was โnaiveโ to โexpect betterโ from Kangana.

Dear @KanganaTeam I am all for criticizing Govts. But "why Mumbai is feeling like POK" seems to me like a direct comparison between Mumbai & POK. Your comparison was really in bad taste. As a Mumbaikar I did not like it! Maybe it was naive of me to expect any better from you. https://t.co/E9feLKsurv

Kanganaโs controversial comment
Kangana had asked Sanjay Raut why Mumbai started feeling like โPakistan-occupied Kashmirโ after Aazadi graffitis and โopen threats'. Raut had asked her not to return to Mumbai, after she taunted that she felt โscaredโ about Mumbai Police, amid her sensational allegations in the alleged Bollywood-drug mafia links.

Sanjay Raut Shiv Sena leader has given me an open threat and asked me not to come back to Mumbai, after Aazadi graffitis in Mumbai streets and now open threats, why Mumbai is feeling like Pakistan occupied Kashmir? https://t.co/5V1VQLSxh1

Renuka had earlier tweeted that Mumbai was the city where Kangana had accomplished her acting dream in and that the least she could do was โrespect the wonderful city.โ She added that the comparison was โappalling.โ
Previously, Renuka had made a similar response to former Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavisโ wife Amruta for writing that โMumbai had lost its humanityโ amid the flak for Mumbai Police post the deaths of Sushant Singh Rajput and Disha Salian.
@fadnavis_amruta this is really unfair to a city that feeds & homes millions. However tattered the roof or blanket, Mumbai gives residents a reason to hope, dream & smile even without Z security. @MumbaiPolice have been working tirelessly to keep us safe even during covid 1/2 https://t.co/VVXXpmcOey
