Kangana slams Taapsee for her comments

Kangana Ranaut reignited her feud with Taapsee Pannu.

On Saturday evening, Kangana posted a story without naming Taapsee, but shading an actor whom she referred to as ‘sasti copy’, a tag she has used for Taapsee earlier. “One Sasti copy is out and about with her upcoming B grade film 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,” wrote Kangana.

In her next story, Kangana shared a news article about Taapsee’s comments and directly addressed her this time. “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 zameendar Family and raised by educated distinguished parents. It was a personal choice for me to start from scratch why attack my parents for that,” she wrote.

Kangana directly referred to Taapsee in her follow-up story.

What Taapsee had said

Taapsee has been promoting her upcoming Netflix film, Gandhari. In a recent interview, she spoke about her feud with Kangana, reiterating that she has never met her. “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,” the actor said in an interview with India Today.

The feud between Taapsee and Kangana

Taapsee and Kangana's feud started in 2019. It intensified after Kangana's sister, Rangoli Chandel, called Taapsee a “sasti copy” of Kangana on social media. The exchange further escalated in 2020 after Kangana referred to Taapsee and others as “B-grade actresses” and “needy outsiders” amid debates around nepotism and industry politics.

Taapsee, however, has maintained that despite their differences, she is ready to be friends with the actor.
