Swara Bhasker reports tweet by Kangana Ranaut’s team for using racist slur, says ‘you should too’

Swara Bhasker has reported a tweet by Kangana Ranaut’s team’s account on Twitter for using a racist slur.

Actor Swara Bhasker says that she has reported a tweet by the Twitter account of actor Kangana Ranaut’s team, on Wednesday. Swara says the tweet mentioned a racist slur.

Swara Bhasker and Kagana Ranaut have been throwing barbs at each other since earlier this month.

The original tweet by Kangana’s team used the slur ‘Pakis’. It read: “You think Kangana won’t split her head into two, Rani LaxmiBai style? Dear P**is, stay out of our business.... back off.” They were responding to a now deleted comment. Swara also asked others on Twitter to report the account and wrote: “I’ve reported this tweet for using a racist slur. Tweeple, you should too.”

Swara reacted by joking that Kangana also brought parallel cinema and feminism into the spotlight with her film, Queen. She tweeted, “Kangana ji ran parallel cinema with ‘Pather Panchali’ in 1955, She started Feminism with Queen in 2013, but first of all in 1947, she got India independence. - says an unknown sycophantic needy outsider, eating the fruits of sycophancy and licking fingers.”

In another tweet, Swara wrote, “Okay so while on topic.. full disclosure & confession. I am needy. I need respectful public interaction. I need rationality and logic in debate. I need sane, civil and decent public discourse. I need rule of law. and I need FACTS ! What do you need? #NeedyOutsider.” They have been engaged in unending back and forth on Twitter since.
