On 24th March, Kangana Ranaut announced that she will fight the Lok Sabha election from Himachal Pradesh’s Mandi on the BJP’s ticket. Soon after this announcement, the National-award-winning actress met BJP national president JP Nadda.
Sharing the picture of the meeting, the actress wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter), “Today met National President Honorable Shri Jagat Prakash Nadda ji. I will always be grateful for his guidance and support, I will work hard for the progress and prosperity of my area Mandi. Jai Hind”
Talking to the media recently, she said, “God has been kind and has blessed me a lot. For me, politics is not a means to gain publicity or make money, it’s a way to serve the people. As public figures and actors, we reach a point where the audience too expects something from us in terms of giving back to society.”
She added, “What all I have, it’s all because of people and the BJP is a party of the people. I’ll make sure to not leave any stone unturned and give back way more to people compared to what they have blessed me with. I had used the word ‘Nepotism’ and I would like to say that the BJP is a political party with a fair outlook and functioning."
Stating that she joined the party as a worker and not a Bollywood star, she added, “Today, I haven’t joined this party as a Bollywood star, I have become a part of the party as a worker and will work in the interest of the party and society. A lot of people today have gathered here and given me this opportunity as they guide me through this path."
