Shiv Sena vs Kangana
Raut faces criticism a few days ago for calling Ranaut ‘haramkhor ladki’ during an interview. Reacting to criticism and the demand that he apologised to the actor for his comments, the Shiv Sena leader said “If that girl will apologise to Maharashtra, then I will think about it (of apologising). She calls Mumbai a mini Pakistan. Does she have the courage to say the same about Ahmedabad?”
Apart from Raut, Shiv Sena MLA Pratap Sarnaik also targetted Kangana Ranaut for her PoK-Mumbai comment, "MP Sanjay Raut cautioned Kangana in a very mild way. If she comes here then our brave women will not leave without slapping her. I will demand Kangana to be booked for sedition for comparing Mumbai, the city which creates industrialists and film stars, to PoK,” he said. His comments drew the ire of National Commission For Women Chairperson Rekha Sharma, who demanded Sarnaik's arrest. Read more about it here.
