The actor took to her Instagram Stories to share her thoughts on the Mahakumbh girl Monalisa, who has gone viral for her looks.

What Kangana said
Taking to her Instagram Stories, Kangana shared a picture of Monalisa and wrote: “This young girl Monalisa has become an internet sensation for her natural beauty, as much as I hate people harassing her for pictures and interviews I can't help but think do we have dark dusky Indian tone female representation in glamour world anymore? Are people loving young actresses how they loved Anu Agarwal, Kajol, Bipasha, Deepika or Rani Mukerji?”
‘Too much laser and glutathione injections?’
She went on to add, “Why all actress look as pale as a white woman including those were dark in younger days? Why people don't identify newcomers the way they identify with Monalisa? Too much laser and glutathione injections?”
