Here's the latest update from the Bollywood world:
Bollywood star and BJP MP Kangana Ranaut has seemingly reignited her long-running feud with Taapsee Pannu after the latter commented on her upbringing. In now-deleted Instagram Stories, Kangana called Taapsee a “sasti copy” and accused her of “ridiculing” her upbringing and parents. Taapsee has now seemingly responded to the remarks with a cryptic social media post.
Adding to this, Taapsee Pannu hits back at Kangana Ranaut's remarks. Taapsee Pannu hits back at Kangana Ranaut's remarks On Saturday, Kangana posted on Instagram to react to Taapsee’s comments about her upbringing. Without naming the star, she wrote, “One Sasti copy is out and about with her soon-to-release B grade movie but as usual only headline point with the media is Kangana Ranaut, but today she crossed all limits shamelessly ridiculing my upbringing /parents, I think all parents do their best and I never bring any parents in to any argument, but today I also want to ask her parents why they couldn't birth someone original like my parents did? Why a cheap Sasti copy? Feel sorry for your efforts.”
Meanwhile, She added, “This is so unfortunate and so wrong, but she is not the only one; many people who grew up in shady, cramped-up outskirts of cities in dingy rented apartments with questionable backgrounds and incomes often question my upbringing and malign my parents and background who hail from a renowned Rajput zamindar family and were raised by educated, distinguished parents. It was a personal choice for me to start from scratch; why attack my parents for that?”
Notably, Kangana later deleted the Instagram Stories. Taapsee subsequently took to social media and shared a cryptic post without naming Kangana. It read, “Hence proved.”
As per the latest buzz, When asked about her feud with Kangana, Taapsee told India Today, “I haven't met her. I didn't meet her before when these so-called issues started. I haven't met her now as well. My opinion on her is reflective of my upbringing and my way of talking, my way of perceiving things and hers... she stands by hers. So, I think that's enough for everybody to look and decide who comes from where.”
In further updates, Kangana and Taapsee’s feud dates back to 2019. It intensified after Kangana’s sister Rangoli Chandel called Taapsee a “sasti copy” of Kangana on social media. Their exchange escalated further in 2020, when Kangana referred to Taapsee and others as “B-grade actresses” and “needy outsiders” amid debates surrounding nepotism and industry politics.
On top of that, Taapsee is currently awaiting the rollout of her movie Gandhari. Directed by Devashish Makhija and written by Kanika Dhillon, the movie is set in the fictional town of Joypurra. It follows Bani, a mother who loses her sight in a tragic accident and channels her grief into resilience as she goes to extreme lengths to rescue her child. The movie will premiere on Netflix on September 3.
