Kangana Ranaut: Known for her audacious remarks and candid demeanour, Kangana Ranaut is back in the news following the reappearance of an old tweet in the context of her recent desire to enter politics. Kangana had made it clear in the 2021 tweet that she would never run for office in her native Himachal Pradesh, citing the state’s sparse population and dearth of important problems like poverty or crime.
Kangana’s Political Nomination
But as things have recently turned around, Kangana has been announced as the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) Mandi, Himachal Pradesh, candidate for the next Lok Sabha 2024 elections. Her previous post has gained new attention as a result of this action, with many people pointing out the apparent contradiction in her position on social media.
The 2021 tweet from Kangana read, “If I get into politics, I want a state with complexities I can work on and be the Queen I am in that field also.” It was a statement of her wish to work in a more complex state where she could affect more people. In response to a user’s suggestion that she run in a by-election from the Mandi Lok Sabha Constituency, she tweeted.
Online Debate Erupts Over Kangana’s Political Move
Online responses to this tweet’s reemergence have been conflicting. Some people criticise Kangana for acting in a way that contradicts her words, while others support her right to follow her political path. According to a commentator, “One thing you should know about actors and politicians – they always do the exact opposite of what they say in public.”
Despite the backlash over her previous post, Kangana has enthusiastically embraced her new political path. She tweeted her appreciation that she was selected as the BJP’s Mandi candidate, saying, “I feel honoured and elated to officially join the party. I look forward to be a worthy karyakarta (worker) and a reliable public servant.”
