Kangana’s response came after Congress leader Vijay Wadettiwar on Friday alleged that Bollywood actress had said in the past that she ate beef. Wadettiwar stated that the saffron party gave ticket to Kangana, who once wrote on X (formerly Twitter) that she ate beef and liked it, PTI reported.
Notably, the Bollywood actress is attacking the Congress and Rahul Gandhi since she joined the saffron party. Even before joining the BJP, Ranaut was making news for her pro-Hindu remarks.
